The Madras high court on Monday quashed Tamil Nadu government's recent order abolishing Common Entrance Test for admissions to professional courses in the state.
A division bench comprising Chief Justice Markandeya Khatju and Justice S M Ibrahimkalifullah, however, said that regarding the improvement examination, the matter is a policy decision of the government and the court would not interfere as it was a benefit given to the students.
The court said the improvement examinations would be valid for this year.
On June 9, a state government notification had abolished Common Entrance Test and improvement examination with immediate effect.
