Parents allege foul play in MBBS admissions
They plan to meet MCI officials tomorrow
Puducherry UT All CENTAC Students Parents Association (PCESPA) president M. Narayanassamy on Monday alleged irregularities in the admission of students to the medical seats in the fourth round of counselling.
Stating that the association would be lodging a complaint with the Medical Council of India (MCI), Mr. Narayanassamy said that the parents would meet the MCI officials on Wednesday seeking their intervention in the matter.
After three rounds of counselling conducted by the Centralised Admission Committee (Centac), 96 seats were vacant in one self-financing and two minority medical institutions.
“The colleges have to fill these vacancies as per the merit list and call for counselling in their institutions at the ratio of 1:10. The Puducherry government has announced 355 as the cut-off mark.
“However, the institutions have admitted students who have scored less than 109 marks which is contempt of court,” he said.
He alleged that the medical institutions were charging up to Rs. 25 lakh fee for the undergraduate courses. “Students who have scored below 109 marks and joined the institutions will be in trouble if the issue is brought to the notice of MCI. After September 30, 2016, these medical institutions had admitted students who had not applied for the course. Those medical students who got admissions to these colleges in this manner last year will now face trouble,” he said.
