All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) hearing of the case of students deprived of the examination was held in the Supreme Court on Friday. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court said that in AIIMS Gorakhpur, MBBS first year students of short attendance should be allowed to appear in the examination.

The Supreme Court will issue a detailed order on Monday after hearing the petition in detail. He instructed AIIMS Gorakhpur to conduct exams for first year students, who have less attendance. The court asked the petitioner to give the total number of students whose attendance is less.

During the hearing, the counsel for one of the petitioners, Nedumpar, said that his client had sufficient attendance and should be allowed to appear in the examination. AIIMS lawyer Uditya Banerjee said that student attendance was 60 per cent before Corona and after Kovid he appeared in 4 classes. The student argues that he cannot do the class only because he comes from a remote area. If he could attend 4 online classes, he could also attend the second class.

Court asked, what option do students have now

Justice Rao asked the AIIMS counsel that if you are attending the hearing today, can you all join Suvanai? Every day there is some technical problem. The Supreme Court asked what option the student has now. The advocate of AIIMS said that the student is first year, so now he should appear in the first year examination to be held in October.

Supreme Court seeks opinion from MCI

The Supreme Court asked that this is a matter related to the future of 10 students, is it just a matter of attendance, is there anything else? The Supreme Court has sought the opinion of MCI (Medical Council of India) during the hearing. MCI lawyer Gaurav Sharma said that AIIMS does not come under MCI, but we are of the opinion that students should not be wasted for a year.
