The controversy was in relation to the restriction placed on the admissions of male candidates into B.Sc.(Nursing) Course beyond a particular percentage. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Medical and Health. In a batch of writ petitions, this Court has taken the view that the restriction of the admissions of male candidates into B.Sc.(Nursing) Course, to a particular percentage cannot be sustained, when adequate female candidates are not available. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, in terms of the interim orders. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 06-10-2005 Jsu
