Judgement

HANSARIA, J.:- Special leave granted.

2. Admissions in professional courses, specially medical, despite all efforts being made to secure them, have always been a vexed question and posed problems. If the efforts are within legal parameters, the same cannot boomerang. The appellants, however, over-did, so much so, that while seeking admissions to Ist year MBBS courses for the academic year 1993-94, they, in collusion with the members of the Selection Scrutiny Committee (SCC), put up higher ranking in their admission forms, by reason of which they were given admissions in various medical colleges of the State of Karnataka. However, it was subsequently found that the rankings were really not as mentioned in the admission forms, but lower. When this fact came to the notice of the authorities, their admissions were cancelled. The cancellation order was challenged on various grounds, but the High Court of Karnataka upheld the action. Hence these appeals by special leave.

3. On a grievance being made that the appellants had been condemned unheard, this Court by its order 9-1-1995 noted that the State would have no objection to granting a post-decisional hearing to the appellant
