Madras high court
Chennai: The Madras high court has directed the Tamil Nadu Dr.M.G.R. Medical University to grant affiliation to Sri Muthukumaran Medical College Hospital and Research Institute at Mangadu in Chennai, after getting undertaking from them that within a period of three months, they will rectify the defects pointed out by the Inspection team.
Justice G.Jayachandran gave the directive while disposing of a petition from the college, which sought a direction to the University to include the petitioner college in the seat matrix for the academic year 2019-2020 so as to enable admission of students before August 31, 2019.
The judge said the Institution was running with approval from MCI. The Dr MGR medical university has also affiliated the college and while releasing the seat matrix for admission in the academic year 2019-2020, the college has been included in the seat matrix permitting intake of 150 seats. However, in view of the show cause notice issued by the CMDA for lock and seal of 14 buildings under the petitioner trust, the University has revoked the permission granted to the institution for admitting students. This has forced the petitioner to approach this court, the judge added.
The judge said the petitioner trust has now approached the CMDA for regularization of the buildings constructed without approval and the matter was pending consideration. In the said circumstances, the government has also taken a positive view, on the representation given by the Institute and addressed to the University to consider the petitioner’s representation and take appropriate decision to include the institution in the seat matrix for the academic year 2019-2020, subject to the condition that the Institute shall furnish a declaration stating that the planning permission for the 7 buildings of Sri Muthukumaran Medical College and Research Institute will be ubtained from the CMDA within three months. Pursuant to this letter, the university has deputed an inspection team, which after inspection, pointed out certain defects, the judge added.
The judge said the university in its counter expressed apprehension as to what will happen to the students admitted, if the institute fails to rectify the defects pointed out within 3 months. The defects pointed out by the inspection committee appear to be compliable, if really the Institute genuinely wants to rectify and comply.
“This court is of the opinion that the Institute may not take the risk of disaffiliation by not complying the undertaking, to rectify the defects pointed out by the Inspection Committee within three months. The last defect regarding the approval of CMDA, the government communication indicates that the CMDA will consider the representation of the petitioner for regularization of the building and will re-visit its earlier demolition notice. Even otherwise, the petitioner has come forward to provide alternate building to accommodate the college and hospital”, the judge added.
