Supreme Court to Rule on 50 Extra MBBS Seats at JIET Medical College

New Delhi: The National Medical Commission (NMC) has issued a public notice, informing students admitted to the 50 additional MBBS seats at JIET Medical College and Hospital, Jodhpur, that their admissions depend on the Supreme Court's final decision.

The NMC's Medical Assessment & Rating Board (MARB) clarified that these additional seats, exceeding the initially approved 50, remain under legal scrutiny after a challenge against the Rajasthan High Court’s division bench order dated December 11, 2024.

In response to NMC’s plea, the Supreme Court of India issued a notice and directed, "The petitioners shall be at liberty to publish a general notice informing the students who have been admitted against additional 50 seats re: the pendency of these proceedings."

Following this directive, the NMC released a public notice on March 10, 2025, officially warning students and stakeholders that admissions to these additional 50 seats remain uncertain until the Supreme Court delivers its verdict.

This case originates from JIET Medical College & Hospital vs. Union of India and Tirupati Balaji Educational Trust vs. Union of India. The Rajasthan High Court's division bench had previously refused to overturn a single judge's order, which permitted an increase in MBBS seats from 50 to 100 at JIET Medical College, Jodhpur. In response, the NMC challenged this ruling before the Supreme Court through a Special Leave Petition.
