Supreme Court gives NOD for PGDM admissions 2015-16; B Schools in pre AICTE 2010 notification mode

In a swift turn of events, Honble Supreme Court has today on October 15, 2014 allowed the PGDM institutions to go ahead with their admission process 2015-16. The apex court of India has also allowed the B schools to maintain the pre AICTE notification (2010) status which restricted them on various counts. It is a significant order that would bring about clarity on the PGDM admissions 2015-16 as the 300 private B schools offering PGDM programmes were not able to proceed with their admission process for academic session 2015-16 due to lack of clarity on this issue.

The petition was filed in Honble Supreme Court by EPSI, Jaipuria Institute of Management and AIMS regarding staying of the AICTEs Notification (2010) and restoring the status quo and autonomy of PGDM institutions for the academic year 2015-16. .Honble Supreme Court in its four interim orders earlier had restored the status quo and stayed the AICTE Notification of (2010) for Academic Sessions of 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15. With this order now the B schools may have the sigh of relief to go ahead with their admission process 2015-16 as well.

The tricky case was contended at Supreme Court of India by Mr Abhishek Manu Singhvi a very senior counsel alongwith countrysother leading lawyers, Mr K K Venugopal, Mr Gopal Shankar Narayan and Mr Naresh Kaushik .

The case came up before the Supreme Court on October 13, 2014. After a prolonged argument and a lot of convincing arguments, the bench decided not to drop the petition. The Bench however during the hearing had expressed its reservations in extending any further stay in the matter. The combined case of EPSI, Jaipuria Institute of Management and AIMS was scheduled for October 14, 2014 before the same bench and countrys leading lawyers, Mr K K Venugopal, Mr Abhishek Manu Singhvi along with Mr Gopal Shankar Narayan and Mr Naresh Kaushik were present together to represent the case. However, the case could not be taken up by the closing hours and was slated for hearing on Oct 15, 2014. The case came up before the bech today and the apex court on October 15, 2014 has issued the stay order for another one academic year 2015-16

It was expected that Honble Court may not just give another stay order as in previous years but would proceed towards giving a final verdict in the petition.However another year of stay has been allowed now by the apex court restoringthe autonomy, conduct of examinations, admissions, fee structure and governance for academic session 2015-16.
