Natural Justice in ST Admissions | Bombay HC Grants Interim Relief Despite Late Caste Certificate Submission : Bombay HC Aurangabad Bench

Bombay HC Aurangabad Bench ruled that a student’s admission under ST category cannot be cancelled solely due to delayed submission of a court-ordered caste certificate, especially when the delay was condoned by judicial intervention. The court directed the institute to allow the petitioner to appear for exams, emphasizing that procedural deadlines must yield to principles of natural justice and equity in education access.
