Halli, Bangalore to the petitioner, and the petitioner has taken admission in said college.

In W.P.No.30515/2024
1. The petitioner was allotted G R Medical College, respondent No.4, by the Karnataka Examinations Authority to study MBBS Course under the Management Quota for the Academic Year- 2021-22. The NMC directed the said college to be closed down for want of infrastructure and other facilities as well as the admissions made illegally (allegedly). The similarly situated students (150) whose admissions were cancelled had approached this Court by filing the petitions and this Court
directed the State Government/KEA to accommodate these 150 students in different Medical Colleges/Institutions, over and above, their sanctioned intake of the students to save the career of the students earlier admitted in G.R.Medical College. The petitioner had paid fee of Rs.20,80,000/- in G R Medical College for pursuing her second year of MBBS Course and thereafter she was transferred to KIMS/Respondent No.6 where also she was made to pay fees for studying second year course. The prayer in this writ petition is that the G R Medical college and the Government Authorities be directed to refund the fee of Rs.20,80,000/- paid by the petitioner in the G R Medical

College for the second year of MBBS Course from the said college.
2. Mr. Sudev Hegde, learned Additional Government Advocate does not dispute the fact that the G R Medical College was liable to refund the fee that was taken from the petitioner for the second year MBBS Course, in the event of the said college having been closed down.
3. We, therefore of the view that the writ petition be
disposed of with the following directions:
i. The Government Authorities/Directorate of Medical Education are directed to get back the fee from the G R Medical College of Rs.20,80,000/- and pay the same to the petitioner inasmuch as she has paid the said amount to the respondent No.6 - KIMS where she was transferred to pursue her further studies. ii. The Directorate of Medical Education should do the needful within a period of eight weeks from today.

iv. The petitioner is directed to furnish the requisite receipt of payment of fee in G R Medical College before the Directorate of Medical Education for taking necessary steps for recovery of the fee from the G R Medical College. v. The Directorate of Medical Education shall also verify whether the petitioner has actually paid the fee of Rs.20,80,000/- to the respondent No.4- College.

disposed of.

1. The petitioners in this batch of the writ petitions are the students who were allotted G R Medical College to pursue MBBS Course for the Academic Year - 2022-23 under the Management Quota by the Karnataka Examination Authority.

2. The NMC found that the allotment of the students to the said college on admissions of the students were is illegal and directed for cancellation of the admissions of the students in the G R Medical College for the Academic Session - 2022-23.
3. The NMC withdrew its recognition to the said college and as a result, the said college came to be closed down. The students of G R Medical College approached this Court by filing various writ petitions and the Division Bench of this Court
directed the KEA to accommodate 150 students admitted by the G. R. Medical College for MBBS Course for the academic year 2022-23 in different private colleges. As a result of the said direction issued by this Court, these students have been accommodated in different medical colleges and they are pursuing their studies in the respective medical colleges.
4. Now, the question involved in these petitions is payment of fee demanded by the private colleges where the students of G. R. Medical College have been accommodated. The colleges are demanding the fee as prescribed by the Directorate of Medical Education under the Management Quota.

However, the students submit that they were admitted in the G.R. Medical College as per the fee prescribed by the KEA.
5. On behalf of the petitioners - students it has been submitted that they are not liable to pay the excess fee to the private medical colleges where they have been accommodated in pursuance of closing down the college. We have put it to the respective colleges who are before us for the concession in the fee demanded by them. The colleges have left to the discretion of the Court to fix the fee, which may be reasonable and justified.
6. It appears that the colleges are demanding Rs.27,00,000/- for the second academic year and onwards. We deem it fit to limit the demand of the private colleges to Rs.20,00,000/- for the second, third and fourth academic year. We therefore direct the petitioners - students to pay the variance fee to the respective colleges at Rs.20,00,000/- each year for the second year to fourth year.
7. With the aforesaid directions, we dispose of the writ petitions.
