Sudev Hegde, learned AGA for the respondents No. 2 & 5, Sri. N.K. Ramesh, learned Advocate for respondent No.6, Ms. Farah Fathima, learned Advocate for respondent No.7 and Shri. D.R. Ravishankar, learned Senior Advocate for respondents No. 8. 3. During the course of hearing, it was submitted by Shri. Dhyan Chinnappa that petitioners would not press the first portion of prayer clause (2) namely, the prayer to quash communication dtd. 28/7/2023 (Annexure-D) by the NMC [National Medical Commission]. 4. The NMC has conducted a surprise inspection of G.R. Medical College on September 5 & 6, 2022 and found several deficiencies. After issuing a show cause notice and hearing the College, it has disapproved the renewal for the academic year 2022-23. Notwithstanding the same, the G.R. Medical College has admitted 150 students for the academic year 2022-23. 5. The NMC, by its communication as per Annexure-D has requested the Principal Secretary, Health and Family Welfare, Government of Karnataka, to examine the issue at his end and to ensure strict compliance of NMC's order not to admit students for the academic year 2022-23. Though the petitioners have sought for quashing of this communication, as noted hereinabove, Shri. Dhyan Chinnappa has given up the said prayer. Though the petitioners have sought for quashing of this communication, as noted hereinabove, Shri. Dhyan Chinnappa has given up the said prayer. The remaining prayer is to direct the respondents to permit the petitioners to take up first year MBBS examination for the academic year 2022-23 in G.R. Medical College. 6. G.R. Medical College has challenged NMC's order dated October 26, 2022, disapproving the renewal of permission for the academic year 2022-23 in Writ Petition No.17254/2023. We have dismissed the said writ petition for the reasons recorded therein. The resultant position is that the G.R. Medical College does not have the recognition from the NMC for academic year 2022-23. Therefore, petitioner's prayer to permit them to write examination in G.R. Medical College does not merit any consideration. 7. Resultantly, this writ petition fails and accordingly, it is dismissed. No costs.
