Quick Summary: A student named Medikayala Koundinya faced a setback when his admission to a law course was rejected because of issues with his category status. The court has now given him a chance to submit missing documents to prove he qualifies.
Medikayala Koundinya, a 26-year-old student from Hyderabad, has a strong academic background. He finished school at Delhi Public School, Secunderabad, and his intermediate studies at Narayana Junior College, Kukatpally. Later, he earned a B.Tech in Petroleum Engineering from the Indian Institute of Petroleum and Energy in Visakhapatnam.
Koundinya took the TG LAWCET 2025 and got a rank of 1223. He turned in his certificates for checking between August 4 and August 14, 2025. However, his application was turned down by the Telangana Council of Higher Education, saying he wasn't eligible for the 'local' category under the open quota.
Judge K. Lakshman looked into the case. The main problem was that Koundinya hadn't given all the needed documents during the checking process. The lawyer for the Telangana Council of Higher Education, Mr. M. Srinivas Reddy, said that if Koundinya provided the missing documents, they would look at his application again.
To be eligible for TG LAWCET 2025:
The court told Koundinya to turn in the missing documents by 11:30 AM on August 23, 2025. The council must then decide if he qualifies and let him know by August 25, 2025. If they turn him down again, they must explain why.
If the person in charge decides that Medikayala Koundinya qualifies for admission into the three-year LLB course in the local category, he should be given admission.
This case shows how important it is to have all the right documents and the difficulties students face with complicated admission processes.
