The Kerala High Court has ruled that the State government can designate the State Medical Board as the certifying authority for assessing the percentage of benchmark disability for candidates seeking admission to medical colleges. This decision was made in response to an appeal filed by the State government, challenging a previous ruling that stated the government could only notify an authority to assess disability percentage based on the RPwD Act. The court emphasized the importance of following the law outlined in the RPwD Act, which provides for certifying individuals with physical disabilities. By designating the State Medical Board as the certifying authority, a uniform procedure can be established for admissions to medical colleges, ensuring fairness and consistency.
