The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has warned candidates against blocking the All India Quota (AIQ) seats in the second round if they had no intention of joining the institution.

Such an act would be considered a criminal offence and if evidence is found against candidates, legal action would be initiated, according to a notice posted on the website of the Directorate General of Health Services.

The notice reads: “MCC/MoHFW is receiving a lot of complaints from students regarding active participation of some groups of students who are likely to block AIQ seats in the second round deliberately for financial gratification without [any] intention of joining them. This amounts to a criminal offence. Such students will be identified, and if credible evidence of seat blocking by cartelisation is found, legal action will be taken against them. The nearly one thousand students who have not joined after the first round have been identified and their future course of action during the second round is being monitored closely.”
