WARANGAL Examination of second year MBBS students in Telangana was cancelled by the Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS) on Monday after different sets of question papers were dispatched by the authorities to few colleges.
The MBBS second year students were set to appear for Pharmacology paper on Monday. According to university officials, some medical colleges receives Set A and others receives Set B thereby causing confusion among college managements. Realizing the goof-up made on part of the university authorities, the examination staff alerted the higher authorities.
Negligence by the university authorities resulted in anguish among students as the goof-up was only detected after all the students appeared for the paper. “There should be a single set of paper that has to be distributed by the university. While three sets are printed, only one has to be dispatched to all colleges. However, one set was dispatched to Osmania Medical College and the other Chalmeda Anand Rao Institute of Medical Sciences in Karimnagar resulting in massive confusion,” said G Srinivas, advisor of Telangana Junior Doctors Association.
The university issued a circular to all colleges declaring that the Pharmacology paper 1 will be reconducted on February 12, 2019 from 10 am to 12 pm. Terming it a “technical error”, the university stated that all colleges must “inform students concerned by notification and take their signatures on the notice.”
However, a section of students have refused to re-appear for the examination. In a complaint registered with the VC, the students squarely blamed the university controller of examination and refused to reappear for the exam. “We students studying in MBBS 2nd year (2016) batch are not ready to write the reexamination of Pharmacology paper 1. We want this exam to be reconsidered and not cancelled. In our opinion reexamination should be conducted when the paper gets leaked. It might be because of technical issues but we are the ultimate suffferers,” read the letter issued by MBBS second year students to the university authorities.
