Bombay High Court Upholds MBBS Admission of Doctor Despite Invalid Certificate

The Bombay High Court has declined to revoke the MBBS admission of a doctor, who had obtained admission to a top Mumbai college under the Other Backward Class (OBC)-Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) Certificate based on false information. The court held that revoking the admission at this stage would deprive the country of a doctor amidst a shortage of medical professionals. However, the court canceled the doctor’s Non-Creamy Layer Certificate and reclassified her admission to the Open Category, requiring her to pay the difference in fees and a penalty for false representation.
