The bench of Justices BR Gavai and Manoj Mishra allowed such post-graduate medical students to resign from the seats if they wished to in an order passed on February 17.
The interim order was passed on a February 17 in writ petition challenging restrictions on medical students from resigning from such seats once they were allotted as per a counseling scheme for the All India Quota for these NEET-Super Specialty courses. Eleven medical students have filed the said plea.
The petition also challenged the penalty imposed by universities or colleges on NEET Super Specialty aspirants who resign from their seats.
The Court, however, clarified that the question of whether such a penalty can be imposed, would be subject to the outcome of the case.
