Puducherry Medical Colleges
Madras High Court on 23rd August 2017, directed the Medical colleges in Puducherry to accept 3.5 lakh rupees admission fee fixed by the Fee fixation committee in March last year and admit students to the MBBS course, a division bench comprising Justice Rajiv Shakdher and Juctice Abdul Quddhose gave direction while considering appeals filed by N Lakshna Shree and two others challenging an order of a single Judge.
Earlier Justice TS Sivaganam had rejected their plea to pay fees of rs.3.5lkah fee fixed by fee fixation committee.
Judge had said that it was valid only for the academic year 2016-17, Petitioners counsel contended that the single judge had failed to consider that the students were deprived of their right to secure admission in their respective colleges on the ground of that and were unable to pay the exorbitant fee demanded by colleges
