ready reference order dated 19.8.2010 of the Apex Court is
referred, which reads as under :-

Permission to file SLP is granted in

                 Mr.       Amarendra        Sharan,       learned
       senior     counsel appearing on behalf of the Board of
       Governors, Medical Council of India,              submits

that though the students’ initial admission is
irregular and illegal but in deference to the
Court’s intervention, they have decided to permit 150
students to appear in the examinations which are
scheduled to commence from 23rd August, 2010. Mr.
Sharan further submits that in lieu of permitting these
150 students, the Petitioner Institution would be
required to surrender 150 seats from the Management
quota in the next five academic years.

                   Mr.      K.K.        Venugopal,        learned
       senior           counsel       appearing on behalf of the

Institution submits that 63 seats from the management
quota have already been taken by the respondents.
He further submits that the admissions
of 150 students were neither illegal nor
irregular.

At this juncture, we are not adjudicating on the
rival contentions of the parties because the main writ
petition is still pending in the High Court. We direct the
Medical Council of India to file a proper affidavit before
the High Court of M.P. at Jabalpur, within three weeks
from today with an advance copy thereof to the other
side, who would be at liberty to file rejoinder thereto, if
any, within two weeks thereafter. This controversy
would also be decided along with the writ petition. In
the facts and circumstances of this case, we request the
High Court to dispose of the main writ
petition as expeditiously as possible, in any event,
within two months from the date of communication of
this order. The High Court would be entitled to decide
the writ petition without being influenced by any
observation made in this order. These special leave
petitions are accordingly disposed of.

As the interest of the petitioners who are the students of
respondent College namely People’s College of Medical Sciences
