Some Main Points :
1)State Gov. is badly in need of Corona Warriors.
2)No discrimination on name of Government and Private Medical College Students.If other states can't make it Compulsory,it doesn't mean that Guj. can't. 2/n
3)Regarding MCI letter, Court noticed that it's not applicable to State if State Gov. released its own resolution under Article 162.
This decision is taken by State for Public Interest. So, judiciary can't interfere in this decision of State Government.
