DEHRADUN: The Uttarakhand government has decided to start the admission process of 1st and 2nd year MBBS students of Shridev Suman Subharti Medical College (SSSMC) to other private and government medical colleges across the state on the basis of their NEET score within two weeks, officials associated with the process told TOI.
The officials added that the both year students will be again made to sit for the first-year exams after the college is allotted to them.
However, sources from the government told TOI that the 2nd year students have approached the Supreme Court (SC) to contest against the clause which makes them to reappear for the first-year exam. The matter is pending in the court.
The committee, constituted by the state government on the orders of apex court to adjust the students of SSSMC in private and government medical colleges, on Tuesday finalised the criteria on how the students will be adjusted in the five institutions in the hill state.
Talking to TOI, Dr Hemchandra Pandey, vice chancellor of Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna Uttarakhand Medical Education University, who is heading the committee, said they have already submitted their report to the government on categories and criteria on which the students will be allotted medical college.
“There is one more meeting scheduled with members of the concerned medical colleges (3 government and 2 private ones) after which we will start the counselling. It may take another 10 to 15 days,” Pandey said.
The committee in its report has maintained that the shifting of students will be on basis of their marks obtained in the NEET. Those who scored higher marks will be transferred to government colleges, while private colleges will be allotted to those who scored less.
The committee has also retained the orders of apex court which has said that 2nd year MBBS students will also have to reappear in first year exam after admissions.
To recall, the Supreme Court in December last year had ordered the Uttarakhand government to admit 150 MBSS students of first and second year of SSSMC in other government and private medical colleges.
The court’s order came after it asked the Uttarakhand government on December 6 to take over the infrastructure and assets of the privately owned SSSMC and run it as a government medical college.
This was after a group of over 74 medical students (all NEET pass-outs) complained that that Subharti Trust had defaulted in its responsibilities, including obtaining necessary affiliation and permissions from the MCI. Legal experts said that this was the first time that the apex court had asked the government to take over a private college.
