Madras high court.
Chennai: Madras high court has rejected the plea of a dental college student seeking migration from one college to another college midway through the course as a matter of right other than the ones stipulated by Dental Council of India.
Justice S. Vaidyanathan, before whom a petition filed by Nisshanthi came up for hearing, has upheld the order of Dental Council of India (DCI). The petitioner sought the high court to quash an order dated November 22, 2017, of DCI refusing permission to her to migrate from Mahe Institute of Dental Science & Hospital in Chalakkara, Mahe to Sri Venkateswara Dental College, Puducherry.
The order stated that as per DCI norms, migration was permitted from a recognised dental college to another recognised one by DCI in the beginning of the second year BDS course only on compassionate ground - death of supporting guardian or disturbed conditions as declared by government in the college area.
She submitted that her mother was unwell and hence, her request ought to have been considered.
Besides this there were 14 vacancies in Sri Venkateswara college and hence there cannot be any hurdle on the part of DCI to permit the migration. Rejecting her plea, Justice Vaidyanathan said that with regard to migration on compassionate grounds, the petitioner lacked the prescribed criteria.
If the petitioner has not fulfilled any other conditions and if the contention of the petitioner is accepted that her mother is unwell, the other students may also knock at the doors of DCI after getting the no objection certificates from the college where they originally studied to the college they want to join, thereby creating disturbance to the functioning of the colleges and it would be a wrong signal.
The judge said as long as the BDS course regulations published in the gazette dated September 10, 2017, which regulations were approved by the Central government under the Dentists Act, which are in force and which are more or less similar to the DCI regulations, the petitioner cannot, as a matter of right, seek for transfer/migration.
