( 1 ) RELIANCE is being placed on the Orders of the Hon ble Supreme Court in Writ Petition No. 203 of 1998 dated 20/07/1998 entitled as Karandeep Singh and Ors. Versus Union of India and Ors. , and in particular to the following paragraph:

"in the peculiar facts and circumstances of these cases, we direct the director General, Health Services to examine the cases of all these petitioners and unless there are candidates, who have secured marks higher than the petitioner and are interested to persue the Post Graduate courses in the concerned colleges, to grant them admission against the vacant seats available in different medical colleges of the country. The petitioners shall approach the Director General, Health Services within one week from today for a follow up action. "

( 2 ) IT is on this basis that learned counsel for the Petitioner submits that notwithstanding the Petitioner s specific waiver of the right to be considered in the State of Rajasthan, and assuming that there are some seats lying vacant in the All-India Quota, she should be permitted to participate in the second counselling for admissions in Rajasthan.

A waiting list containing not more than 10% of the merit list will also be declared from amongst the successful candidates who have secured more than 50% marks in the competitive examination. (4)The allotment by personal appearance will start from the first of March every year and will continue up to March 15. (5)In the Bulletin of Information the dates for allotment by personal appearance and the venue at Delhi will be notified. The time-schedule for personal appearance will also be notified along with the results in the newspaper. (6)For personal appearance, the candidates will be called in batches of 150 each day in the order of merit. (7)The candidates shall have the right to choose any one of the available seats at his/her rank. The same will be allotted to him/her and the allotment letters will be issued on the next day.
