Summary
The Supreme Court refused permission for the institution’s M.Sc Nursing course for academic session 2018–19. It failed to establish a complete application with required particulars and supporting documents by the prescribed deadline; university affiliation consent was obtained only afterwards. Past operation of undergraduate courses and a later inspection did not cure those deficiencies. The record also disclosed absence of the required parent hospital, while the institution fell outside the stated geographical exemption.
Issues
- Whether the institution established entitlement to course permission for academic session 2018–19.
Held
- The appellant supplied neither its writ petition nor proof that the online application included all required particulars and documents. The M.Sc affiliation consent dated 2 February 2019 was unavailable by the 22 December 2018 application deadline. (¶¶ 7–8, 11)
- The inspection did not establish full compliance: it recorded an incomplete application, unpaid renewal fees and absence of the institution’s own hospital. The applicable communication required a parent hospital and the institution was not within the tribal or hilly-area exemption. (¶ 9–10)
- On this record there was no basis to fault the High Court or grant M.Sc Nursing permission for the session in question. (¶ 12)
Result
Appeal dismissed; requested M.Sc Nursing permission for academic session 2018–19 refused.
