Sanchita Tudu v. Union Of India And ORS.

07.07.2025 (M/L 27) Ct.-17 (Susanta Samar)

IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

CONSTITUTIONAL WRIT JURISDICTION APPELLATE SIDE W.P.A. 26583 of 2023 Sanchita Tudu -VsUnion of India & Ors.

Mr. Pradip Saren, Mr. Soumik Ghosh, Mr. Saheli Hembrom, ...For the Petitioner.

Mr. Sunit Kumar Roy, .... For the National Medical Commission.

Mr. D. N. Maiti, Mr. M. Saha, .... For WBUHS.

The petitioner, being a member of Scheduled Tribe community had participated in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test ("NEET") UG-2023 for admission in MBBS/BDS courses.

The petitioner is alleging that in the said Test, some of the candidates though had participated as the members of Scheduled Tribe community but actually they do not belong to such community.

The process of NEET UG-2023 was concluded long back, as such challenge to the said selection process at a belated stage, has become infructuous, W.P.A. 26583 of 2023 is therefore dismissed as such without any order as to costs.

It is however, made clear that this order will not prevent the petitioner to raise dispute regarding the caste certificate of the persons against whom she is making the aforementioned allegations before the appropriate forum in accordance with law.

Parties to act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court.

Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties, subject to compliance of all requisite formalities. (Biswajit Basu, J.)
