The petitioner is a native of Ernakulam. Therefore, she wanted a transfer to Kottayam Medical College, where also the same course is available. The petitioner seeks a direction to the respondents to consider her application for transfer to Kottayam Medical College. The learned Government Pleader submits that the Supreme Court has held that after the last date fixed for completing the admissions, even transfers cannot be permitted. He goes on to say that in 2004 when reallotments were made after the appointed date, the Medical Council of India had taken proceedings against the medical colleges for doing the same. This position is not disputed by the counsel for the petitioner. In any event, I am w.p.c.19863/07 2 satisfied that since the Supreme Court has fixed the last date for admission, even transfers cannot be permitted. In the above circumstances, the petitioner cannot be granted the relief prayed for and accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge.
