The Supreme Court on Wednesday imposed Rs five crore as fine on a private medical college in Unnao for granting admission to students in violation of the Medical Council of India (MCI) regulations but allowed the 132 students to complete the MBBS course on a condition that they will do community service for two years after becoming doctors.
A bench of Justices L Nageswara Rao and S Ravindra Bhat said Saraswati Medical College admitted 132 students without seeking a nod from the Director General Medical Education (DGME), Uttar Pradesh but said cancelling their admission at this stage would not serve any useful purpose as they have already completed the second year MBBS course.
The top court also directed the medical college not to recover the amount from the students in any manner whatsoever.
