Case Summary: State of Maharashtra v. Sudhir Shetkar (C.A. No. 007361-007362/2008) On 16 December 2008, the Supreme Court heard the State of Maharashtra's appeal challenging the High Court's judgment regarding 152 post-graduate students admitted to Maharashtra medical colleges in 2005 who were initially deployed for rural service before regularization. The High Court had invalidated the delayed seat-carrying application, citing a 30 September admission deadline set by State Government directions. The Supreme Court granted leave and set aside the High Court's observations and directions, disposing of the appeals on the ground that since the students had already completed their courses and graduated, the peculiar circumstances warranted reversal of the High Court's order.
