BANGALORE:
In what could turn out to a major relief to students with disabilities, a Division Bench of the Karnataka High Court on Friday refused to interfere with a single judge order directing the State to take steps to reserve seats under government quota for them even in private professional colleges.

A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice P.D. Dinakaran and Justice V.G. Sabhahit passed the order dismissing an appeal by the State Government against a single judge order. The single judge had directed the State to ensure that seats are reserved for the physically challenged even in private professional colleges. He had also directed the State to give a seat in postgraduate course in dentistry to Rajalakshmi.

Dr. Rajalakshsmi had petitioned the court after the State refused to allot her a seat under the physically challenged category.
