(2.) The ground of attack in this writ appeal is with regard to the interim direction issued vide order dated 05.01.2012 in Misc. Case No. 20463 of 2011 and the modified order dated 10.01.2012 passed in Misc. Case No. 401 of 2012 arising out of W.P.(C) No. 27972 of 2011. In the impugned order dated 05.01.2012 it is directed that let the students of 2009-2010 batch of the petitioner-institution fill up their forms for the ensuing examination which is going to be held on 30th January, 2012 but their result shall not be declared without leave of this Court. It is submitted that the said interim order passed in exercise of discretionary power during pendency of the writ petition filed by respondent No. 1 therein, is bad in law for the reason that no recognition has been obtained by respondent No. 1 as required under Section 10 of the Indian Nursing Council Act, 1947 (for short, "INC Act") and Rules/Regulations framed thereunder. There is also no recognition for admission of the students into ANM course by the institution. Therefore, the impugned orders are totally illegal.
