HC dismisses PIL against Jipmer’s Karaikal campus

10/08/2019, LEGAL CORRESPONDENT,CHENNAI

The Madras High Court on Friday dismissed a public interest litigation petition filed in 2017 alleging absence of sufficient facilities on the Karaikal campus of Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (Jipmer) for educating students and the misuse of the quota for locals.

Justices S. Manikumar and Subramonium Prasad rejected the PIL plea preferred by S. Sridhar, Puducherry union president of Tamizhaga Vazhvurimai Katchi, after the counsel for Jipmer M.T. Arunan listed the facilities available at the off-site campus and accused the petitioner of having filed the case with false claims.

He said that a detailed counter affidavit had been filed in 2017 itself and it stated that the campus at Karaikal had been established on 80 acres of land.
