ASG KM Natraj appears

Justice Chandrachud: This is Article 32 plea. these petitoners appeared for MDS exams in December 2020 and results declared. no update on counselling. how can you stop counselling for MDS if bachelor exams are postponed?

#NEETMDS #supremecourt

Sr Adv Vikas Singh: counselling has to be done virtually. dcotors have been working on covid patients and there needs to be a covid appropriate behaviour like double masking hand sanitisation etc. entire batch is suffering. kumbh mela etc are happening

Justice Chandrachud: Your plea is on counselling

ASG KM Natraj: I will file a detailed counter. there is issue regarding providing some reservation. Madras HC has passed a judgment regarding giving all India quota in obc reservations

Justice Chandrachud: HC order was in October 2020 and now are in July 2021

ASG: We have sought clarification in the Saloni Kumar judgment from Tamil Nadu High Court

Justice Chandrachud: You are from Tamil Nadu, its High Court of Madras

Justice Hrishikesh Roy: ASG Natraj has a soft corner for the state and not the high court (smiles)

Justice Chandrachud: you are just dilly dallying. make a statement now. Ministry of Health is just dilly dallying. These are hands on courses and these doctors will be in service of patients.

Justice Chandrachud: on the request of ASG we grant a week's time for the response to the grievance set out in the plea. We expect an expeditious decision will be taken in this week and we would be informed when Centre proposes to conduct counselling

Justice Chandrachud: we hope the centre will be conscious to the ramifications of the delay being faced by students due to the non-counselling of students.

TRIBUNAL REFORMS ORDINANCE: JUDGMENT

#SupremeCourt to shortly deliver verdict on a plea by Madras Bar Association challenging Sections 12, 13 of the Tribunal Reforms Ordinance, 2021 and Sections 184 and 186(2) of the Finance Act, 2017 as amended by the Ordinance

One of the moot point of the hearing was whether the retrospective effect given to Section 184(11) of Finance Act would override the judgments of the Supreme Court.
#supremecourt #tribunalordinance

Madras Bar Association had argued that challenged provisions are in "contravention of principles of separation of powers, independence of the judiciary (both being part of the basic structure of our Constitution), and are against efficient and effective administration of justice"

#BREAKING: Madras High Court dismisses plea by State General Secretary of the BJP Karu Nagarajan against Tamil Nadu govt’s constitution of a nine-member panel to study the impact of #NEET on socially and economically backward students.

#MadrasHighCourt @KaruNagarajan1

#MadrasHighCourt ORDER: Setting up of the commission does not amount to subverting any process of (medical) admission, far less an act of defiance to any order passed by #SupremeCourt or even remotest challenge to the authority of the Union. #NEET

#MadrasHighCourt ORDER: The setting up of the commission can by no stretch of imagination be seen to be contrary to any Supreme Court order, whether letter or spirit or as a counter to any legislative action taken by the Union or process put in place. #NEET
