Supreme Court blow on private medical colleges

Private technical and medical colleges demanding capitation fee from students is illegal and unethical. Supreme Court has asked the Centre to make laws to put an end to such practices which deny admission to meritorious financially poor students in those institutions.

 Excerpts from the order by bench of Justices K S Radhakrishnan and A K Sikri

 
·         Collection of large amount by way of capitation fee running into crores of rupees for MBBS and postgraduate seats, exorbitant fee, donation etc, by many of such self- financing institutions, have kept the meritorious financially poor students away from those institutions.

·         Pressure, it is also seen, is being extended by various institutions, for the additional intake of students, not always for the benefit of the student community and thereby serve the community, but for their own betterment.

·         We cannot lose sight of the fact that these things are happening in our country irrespective of the constitutional pronouncements by this court in TMA Pai Foundation case that there shall not be any profiteering or acceptance of capitation fee etc.

·         Central Government, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, CBI, or the Intelligence Wing have to take effective steps to undo such unethical practices or else self-financing institutions will turn to be students financing institutions.

  1. One hand giveth and the other taketh away. I wish justices Altamas Kabir, Justice Dey,Justice Radhakrishnan, and Justice Sikri could have confabulated before the NEET judgment. Honourable SC needs to be clear; Is it good or bad in law and for nation that private medical colleges have a free hand in manipulating admissions.
