What if a Private Medical College arbitrarily hikes its fee structure mid-session without following due procedure?
admin mh_cet_law beginner hypotheticalIn this hypothetical, let's say a private medical college in Maharashtra arbitrarily increases its fee structure mid-session without following the due procedure for revision under the Maharashtra Unaided Private Medical, Dental and Engineering Universities (Regulation of Admission and Fees) Act, 2015. The increased fees become unaffordable for many students, who then approach the Maharashtra HC for a stay.
Under Administrative Law, the HC may exercise its judicial review powers to quash the arbitrary decision, citing the absence of a legitimate expectation due to the absence of procedural fairness. The HC may also direct the college to revert to the original fee structure and compensate the students for the losses incurred.
