#Stray Vacancy Round

Punjab & Haryana HC grants equitable relief to a NEET-PG candidate, allowing completion of her MD Physiology course despite failing to join her All India Quota seat. The court held that strict eligibility norms must yield to substantive justice when a candidate has already completed one-third of the program under interim admission.

Rajasthan High Court mandates authorities to conduct an institutional stray vacancy round to fill 248 vacant PG medical seats for the 2025-26 session, emphasizing compliance with NEET PG counselling guidelines. The ruling sets a precedent for addressing seat vacancies in medical education, ensuring fair admission processes under judicial oversight.
