JUDGMENT

¶15

(Judgment of the court was made by RMT.TEEKAA RAMAN, J.)

¶16

As against the order passed by the learned Single Judge granting stipend to the writ petitioner at the rate of Rs.7600/- per month with effect from 7.11.2011 till completion of CRRI training in Stanley Medical College, Chennai, the present writ appeal has been filed.

¶17

The issue relates to grant of stipend to Foreign Medical Graduates, who are undergoing CRRI training in the Government Colleges in India. It is brought to the notice of this court in a similar matter viz., W.P.No.5458 of 2012, the learned Single Judge, by order dated 16.7.2012, granted the relief, which was the basis for the order passed by the learned Single Judge in the present writ petition, however, a Division Bench of this court in W.A.No.2500 of 2012 by judgment dated 24.6.2015, set aside the order passed by the learned Single Judge in the writ petition cited, finding that the very training called as CRRI Training is important for candidates under two categories, namely stipendiary category and non-stipendiary category and once a person is admitted to training under the non-stipendiary category, he cannot, later, turn around and claim payment of stipend.

¶18

In view of the above subsequent development in the subject matter, the writ appeal is allowed and the order passed by the learned Single Judge in the present writ petition is set aside. No costs. The connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
