JUDGMENT :

Rajiv Shakdher, J.

Preface: -

1. The main grievance of the petitioner veers around denial of admission to her in the DNB Broad Specialty (Post MBBS) course [in short 'DNB (Post MBBS) course'] in the academic session January 2019 by respondent no. 2 i.e. the National Board of Examinations (hereafter referred to as 'the NBE').

2. The NBE denied admission to the petitioner on two short grounds. First, that she was unable to produce the requisite documents/certificates, in original during the document/certificate verification process. Second, that she had blocked a seat as she had secured admission in the All India Quota in respondent no. 3 college i.e. VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi (hereafter referred to as 'VMMC'). It is this which, essentially, has propelled the petitioner to approach this court via the instant writ petition. Thus, to adjudicate on the instant petition, the following broad facts are required to be noticed.

Background: -

2.1 The petitioner avers that she completed her MBBS course from Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Deemed University, Karad,
