For the U.O.I Mr. Indranil Roy Mr. Sunit Kumar Roy ..... for the National Medical Commission The petitioner seeks admission in M.B.B.S Course on the strength of his performance in National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (UG)-2021 against the available vacancies.

It has been submitted by the learned advocate appearing for the National Medical Commission that in terms o the judgment, reported at (2016) 11 SCC 225 (Ashish Ranjan v. Union of India), the last date for admission in the medical course has been fixed on 31st August of that particular academic year. However, by a subsequent order, the Hon'ble Supreme Court had extended the time till April 28, 2022, keeping in mind the pandemic situation.
