In a major jolt to the 124 medicos of Jaring-based Sardar Rajas Medical College in Kalahandi, who were recently relocated in five institutions in the State as per an order of the Orissa High Court, the Supreme Court on Tuesday barred them from attending classes till the next hearing of the case scheduled for January 8.
The Supreme Court asked the students of the Sardar Rajas college who had taken admission during the interim order not to attend classes till January 8, applicant’s lawyer Ashok Mohapatra said.
The court has also sought replies from the State Government and the MCI on the ranks of these students, Mohapatra added.
On December 16 last, the medicos were relieved after the Apex Court gave the State Government permission to go ahead with their admission in two Government and three private medical colleges as per the order of the High Court.
Hearing a special leave petition (SlP) filed by students of the three Government medical colleges pleading for a stay on the admission process till the matter is resolved, the apex court had advised the petitioners to appeal in the High Court instead.
Meanwhile, the State Government on December 22 completed the admission process of 124 students in five institutions.
