COMMON JUDGMENT (ORAL)
Dt: 14.12.2021
(per Prashant Kumar Mishra, CJ)
These two writ appeals have been preferred by the writ petitioners,
whose prayer for grant of interim relief has been rejected by the learned
single Judge.
2. W.A.No.581 of 2021 is directed against an interim order dated
4.8.2021 passed by the learned single Judge dismissing I.A.No.1 of 2021
in W.P.No.13480 of 2021. W.A.No.560 of 2021 arises out of an interim
order dated 4.8.2021 passed by the learned single Judge dismissing
I.A.No.1 of 2021 in W.P.No.13760 of 2021, in view of the order passed in
I.A.No.1 of 2021 in W.P.No.13480 of 2021.
3. The appellants/writ petitioners, who are pursuing 1st year MBBS
course, have failed in the said examination. They are seeking interim
orders directing the respondent Nos.1 and 3 to permit them to pursue 2nd
year MBBS professional course without reference to passing of subjects in
the 1st year MBBS.
4. During the course of hearing, learned counsel for the appellants
would submit that the impugned interim order dated 4.8.2021 passed by
the learned single Judge, which is running into sixteen pages, has dealt
with the legal issues, even though counter-affidavits were not filed at the HCJ & MSM,J W.A.Nos.581 & 560_2021
time of deciding interim applications. They further submit that in view of
pendency of these writ appeals, hearing of the writ petitions is delayed
and the writ petitions may be decided independent of the observations
made by the learned single Judge while deciding the interim applications.
5. Learned Advocate General and learned counsel appearing for
National Medical Commission would submit that lengthy order came to be
passed on account of lengthy arguments being advanced before the
learned single Judge.
6. Be that as it may, it is trite that the observations and reasoning
contained in the interim order are only for the purpose of disposal of the
interim applications, which were decided by the single Judge. Therefore,
we dispose of these writ appeals with an observation that as and when
the writ petitions are decided by the learned single Judge, the
observations made in the interim order shall have no bearing on final
outcome, and the writ petitions shall be decided finally on its own merits
without being influenced by the observations made in the interim order.
7. The parties are at liberty to make a mention before the learned
single Judge for early disposal of the matters.
8. Accordingly, both the writ appeals are disposed of. No costs.
Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed.
