Students now Await Court Verdict on Common Entrance Test

Chennai: Now that the President has given assent to the Tamil Nadu Regulation of Admission in Professional Courses Bill that seeks to abolish the common entrance test, students will eagerly await the outcome of the litigation in the Madras High Court.

They will look forward to the court’s ruling on whether the Act would over-rule the regulations of the Indian Medical Council Act, the Architects Act, the Dentists Act and the all India Council for Technical Education Act, all of which prescribe the conduct of an entrance examination in case students come from than one board from more than on Board.

The aspirants in Tamil Nadu include those from the State Board and a much smaller number from the CBSE and the ICSE. The Medical and the All Indian Council for Technical Education have been cited as respondents in the petitions challenging the Act. The petitioners, including two students A.S.Prabhu and Madan Mohan, have the Presidential assent Article 254 (2) cannot give “an overriding power to the State law,” as the Acts under Entry 25 List III have been declared in the Constitution subject to legislative competence of the Centre. The other concern of students is in finding a way out of break a ‘tie’ (more than one student getting the same mark) for finalizing the rank list.
