1. The petitioner has filed the present petition, inter alia, impugning a letter of the Central Government dated 15.10.2014 (hereafter the 'impugned order'). By the impugned order, the application of petitioner no. 1 - U.P. Rural Institute of Medical Science & Research (hereafter 'petitioner institute'), for approving the scheme of increase in seats in respect of six post graduate courses and for starting three post graduate courses from the academic year 2015-16, was rejected, principally for the reasons that the application was made on 29.05.2014 i.e. after the cut-off date of 30.04.2014 and secondly, the Consent of Affiliation (hereafter 'CoA') filed along with the application, was not valid for the academic year 2015-16 as the said CoA was for academic session 2014-15.
