Order

10/03/2026

1. Present petition has been filed praying for following reliefs: -

(Uploaded on 12/03/2026 at 05:43:07 PM)

[2026:RJ-JD:11772] (2 of 4) [CW-18221/2025]

"A. By an appropriate writ, order or direction, any order denying to issue the permanent degree and permanent registration certificates of BAMS Course to the petitioners may kindly be quashed and set aside. B. By an appropriate writ order or direction, the respondents may kindly be directed to issue the permanent degree of BAMS Course of petitioners. C. By an appropriate writ order or direction, the respondents may kindly be directed to issue permanent registration certificate as medical practitioner of BAMS Course to the petitioners. D. By an appropriate writ order or direction, the respondents may kindly be directed to permit the petitioners in further courses or medical practices in Ayush.

E. Any other appropriate writ, order or direction which this Hon'ble Court may deem just and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case may kindly be passed in favour of the petitioners.

F. Writ petition filed by the petitioners may kindly be allowed with costs."

2. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners

had participated in the examination for admission to

Undergraduate Course of Bachelor Of Ayurvedic Medicine &

Surgery conducted by Respondent No. 5 - University. Thereafter,

learned counsel states, Respondent - University allotted

petitioners seats to pursue UG-BAMS Course in S.S. Ayurvedic

Medical College and Hospital, Udaipur.

3. It is submitted that although Respondent - University itself

allotted a seat to petitioners in said college, said college was not

permitted to take in selected students for want of NOC from

concerned authorities.

[2026:RJ-JD:11772] (3 of 4) [CW-18221/2025]

4. In such circumstances, petitioners along with other similarly

situated students made several representations before Respondent

Authorities seeking transfer from said college to any other

recognized college; however, the same was not allowed for one or

the other reason.

5. Consequently, petitioners and other students filed a writ

petition before this Court, being S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.

2021/2021, wherein an interim order was passed permitting

petitioners to appear in the Second-year examination.

6. It is submitted that in pursuance of said interim order passed

by this Court, petitioner - students have already completed the

UG-BAMS Course and have also undergone the mandatory 1-year

internship. However, neither permission has been issued to

petitioners, nor respondents have granted permanent registration

as medical practitioners to petitioners.

7. Learned counsel for the petitioners further apprised this

Court that similarly situated students had preferred S.B. Civil

Writ Petition No. 15479/2024 (Shubhanshu Sharma & Ors.

vs. National Commission for Indian System of Medicine &

Ors.) before Hon'ble High Court of Delhi and the same was

allowed in favour of said students vide order dated 30.04.2025.

8. It is argued that judgment rendered in Shubhanshu

Sharma (supra) relates to students of the same batch and same

college where petitioner had also taken admission, namely, S.S.

Ayurvedic Medical College and Hospital, Udaipur, and therefore,

case of petitioners is squarely covered by said judgment.

[2026:RJ-JD:11772] (4 of 4) [CW-18221/2025]

9. Learned counsel appearing for the respondents has failed to

controvert the submission made on behalf of petitioners as

regards applicability of judgment passed by the Hon'ble Delhi High

Court in the case of Shubhanshu Sharma (supra).

10. Since the issue involved in present case is no more res

integra and the same is squarely covered by judgment passed by

Hon'ble Delhi High Court in the case of Shubhanshu Sharma

(supra), present petition deserves to be allowed on the same

terms.

11. Accordingly, present writ petition is allowed and following

directions are issued:

(I) Respondent No. 5 / University is directed to issue

permanent degrees to petitioners subject to their passing all

requisite exams and completing their internships.

(II) Respondent Nos. 3 and 4 are directed to recognize

qualifications of petitioners and grant them permanent

registration as medical practitioners.

12. Stay application and all other pending applications, if any,

hereby stand disposed of.
