Supreme Court Ruling on Disability in Medical Education
The Supreme Court of India has made a landmark ruling regarding MBBS and disability assessment. It has been established that the mere existence of a 40% benchmark of disability does not prohibit students from enrolling in medical programs. This decision emphasizes that without a detailed expert report indicating incapacity, students should not be barred from pursuing their medical education.
Implications of the Ruling
- Increased accessibility for students with disabilities.
- Potential changes to eligibility criteria for medical education.
- Encouragement for more students to enter the medical field.
