    The Telangana High Court has directed that children of Central Government, Central Government Corporations and Central Public Sector Undertakings (CPSUs) employees who studied outside State due to their parent's posting, must be given benefit of local candidature for medical and dental admissions on same terms as children of State Government employees.


    Chief Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh and Justice G.M. Mohiuddin held that, pending a formal amendment, the proviso to Rule 3(a)(iii) of the Telangana Medical & Dental Colleges Admission Rules, 2017 must be read to include these categories. The Court said there was no justifiable reason to exclude children of Central Government employees when similar exceptions had already been carved out for other categories of transferable employees.
