Ukraine MBBS : Supreme Court Seeks Union's Response On Relief For Medical Students Who Returned From Ukraine Before Final Year

Live Law  

The Supreme Court recently issued a notice to the Union of India to clarify whether relief measures have been extended to students who were pursuing medical education in Ukraine and had to return to India before their final year due to the Russia–Ukraine conflict in 2022. A bench of Justice Abhay Oka and Justice Ujjal Bhuyan opined that steps mentioned in the Union's compliance affidavit for medical students who returned from Ukraine appeared to assist only final-year students, and sought to know on whether any measures have been extended to students who returned before reaching their final year of the MBBS course. “It appears from paragraph 5 that Union of India have taken care of category of students who were pursuing medical education abroad in Ukraine and have returned to India in their penultimate year. We issue notice to the respondents for limited purposes to ascertain whether any relief was extended to those students who were forced to come back from Ukraine who had not reached the final year of the MBBS course.” The notice is returnable on February 14, 2025, by which date the Court directed the Union of India to file a counter affidavit.
