CLARIFICATION The Hon¶ble Supreme Court (Bench of Hon.7 judges) has delivered a judgment on 12/08/2005 in Civil Appeal No. 5041/2005 in respect of µrights and entitlement¶ of Government as against Private Professional Educational Institutions. This judgment expects enactment of legislation by Central Government and in its absence, by State Government in this regard. This process has been initiated. However it is not certain, as of this date, as to when such legislation will come into force, as also its provisions. In the meanwhile, in terms of the observations of the Hon¶ble Supreme Court from the aforesaid judgment, at least at this stage, it appears that State Government cannot claim any quota/seats in these colleges/institutions, and consequently cannot effect admission in these Private MCA Colleges/Institutes, except to the extent agreed to with certain institutions. It is therefore made clear that on the aforesaid interpretation and advice given to the State Government, this Brochure will not apply to the admissions to be effected in the academic year 2013-2014 at the Private MCA Colleges / Institutions in so far as postgraduate courses are concerned, with the above exception. However, it is made expressly clear that if, after issuance of this Brochure, either on account of any legislation or on account of any different interpretation/opinion/advice or due to any judgment/order passed by any court of law or even otherwise, the State Government is found entitled to any seat(s) in the Private MCA Colleges/Institutions and consequently entitled to effect the admission(s) to such seat(s), the rules and regulations set out in this Brochure will be made applicable to such seat(s) and admission(s). In such event, a separate intimation will be issued with appropriate details. It is also made hereby clear in no uncertain terms that the same µCommon entrance Test¶ that is proposed to be conducted in terms of this Brochure will govern such admission(s), if any. It is hereby clarified that, Association of MCA Institutes has given in writing to the State Government that, the admission to their institutes be conducted on the basis of CET that is being conducted by the Government of Maharashtra in pursuance of this brochure. The said Association has also submitted in writing that, their admissions be conducted under the CAP rounds by the State Government. Therefore, admission to these institutes (a list of which is enclosed in the brochure) will be conducted on the basis of MAH-MCA- CET 2013 of the State Government and the CAP of the State Government.
