The CBI has registered a case against the managing directors and registrars of four deemed universities and three private medical colleges and hospitals and unknown public servants of the directorate of health and family welfare on charges of criminal conspiracy, cheating and criminal misconduct while admitting students to MBBS course in their institutions for the academic year 2016-17.
The investigation agency said the deemed universities and private medical colleges denied MBBS seats under the management quota to the genuine candidates with a high percentage in the National eligibility cum entrance test (Neet) and admitted ineligible candidates, who came forward to pay excess fees.
These institutions not only denied seats for genuine students but also did not adhere to the fees structure prescribed by the fees committee. These institutions did not submit the final list of admitted students neither to the government nor to the Centralized admission committee (Centac) and did not maintain any records on the number of applications received, Neet merit list and order of counselling.
The Medical Council of India (MCI) directed these institutions to remove 767 students who were admitted under management quota without complying with the rules and regulations.
“But till date no proposal was submitted by the health department for giving effect to the cabinet resolution for taking action against the erring private medical colleges. Hence, it is suspected that officials of the health department may have acted in connivance with these institutions," the report said.
The agency booked Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Research Institute managing director Rajagopalan, Arupadaiveedu Medical College and Hospital managing director Ganesan, Vinayaga Missions Medical College registrar Ponniyin Selvan, Sri Lakshmi Narayana Institute of Medical Sciences managing director Anbalagan, Sri Manakula Vinayagar Medical College and Hospital managing director Dhanasekaran, Pondicherry Institute of Medical Sciences registrar Anil Jacob Purti and Venkateshwaraa Medical College and Hospital and Research Centre managing director Ramachandran and unknown public servants.
