Telangana MBBS/BDS Local Quota : Supreme Court Expresses Concern Over Excluding Students Who Went To Other States For Coaching

The Supreme Court expressed concerns over Telangana’s local quota policy for MBBS and BDS courses, particularly excluding students who pursued coaching in other states. The court questioned the exclusion of these students from the local quota, pointing out that students often move out of state for better coaching but intend to return for higher education. The bench highlighted the policy’s potential to disadvantage such students and sought clarity on its rationale. This reflects the court’s concern over policies that might inadvertently harm students based on their educational choices outside their home state.
