Delhi HC asks Centre to take decision on filling up MBBS seats for PWDs

The Delhi High Court on Tuesday asked the Centre to take a policy decision on a representation to fill up the vacant seats reserved in medical colleges for those suffering from benchmark disability by taking in candidates who fall short of the threshold but are persons with disabilities (PWD). A bench headed by Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma also asked the Centre to respond to a petition filed by an MBBS aspirant having less than benchmark disability who sought admission in a medical college against one of the unfilled seats reserved for PWD. The petitioner, who has a permanent locomotor disability, scored 96.06 percentile in NEET-UG 2022 and was found to be short of the 40 per cent threshold prescribed for a benchmark disability a precondition for claiming reservation in education. The petitioner said it will be unfair to grant a seat earmarked for candidates with benchmark disabilities to a candidate without any disability by converting them into general category seats. UOI
