SC upholds Kerala HC's order quashing govt move on Medical Education Corpus Fund

New Delhi, May 19 (UNI) The Supreme Court on Monday upheld a Kerala High Court's judgment that quashed a government order validating the decision to remit to the State the corpus fund created to subsidise medical education for Below Poverty Line (BPL) students in self-financing medical colleges in Kerala.
The corpus fund had been formed by remitting a portion of the fees collected from Non-Resident Indian (NRI) students to the State Government.
The Supreme Court ruled that such funds should instead be retained by the self-financing institutions themselves, which are entitled to utilize them for subsidising BPL students' education.
