The high court has allowed four post-graduate students of Ayurveda (2017-18 batch) who didn’t appear for the All India AYUSH - Post Graduate Entrance Test (AIAPGET-2017) to continue their studies and complete their courses.

Granting relief to Dr Sontakke Kanchan Ramrao and three others, a division bench headed by Justice Aravind Kumar said the entrance exam is a must. The students were on a better footing in the light of Supreme Court, as a one-time measure, permitting PG Ayurveda course students admitted before October 31, 2019 without taking the entrance exam, to continue studies in Federation of Self Financed Ayurvedic Colleges case, the bench held.

A direction was issued for announcing the exam results of the four students pursuant to interim orders granted by the court and also issue necessary certificates if they have completed their courses successfully.

The authorities had said petitioners’ admission cannot be approved as they hadn’t appeared for the entrance exam and relief vis-avis entrance examination granted in the Supreme Court’s judgement in Federation of Self Financed Ayurvedic Colleges case was limited to candidates who had the benefit of interim orders.

However, the division bench noted based on the SC decision, students of 2018-19 batch were given relief by coordinate benches of the high court and the petitioners, admitted much earlier, were on a better footing.
