The medical and dental counselling in the state began with 150 seats fewer on the seat matrix as Sri Muthukumaran Medical College, Hospital and Research Institute was not on the list of colleges.
The state selection committee, which conducts counselling for admission for all colleges affiliated to the Tamil Nadu MGR Medical University, put out the seat matrix for 23 government colleges, three staterun self-financing colleges and a dozen self-financing medical colleges on its website. The seats at the newly started KMCH Institute of Health Science and Research, Coimbatore, was added to the state pool, but the absence of seats disappointed several medical aspirants.
Selection committee officials said the Chennai-based college did not have the affiliation from the state medical university, which was mandatory to admit students. “The seat matrix is given to us by the state university. We will not be able to admit students until the university approves it,” said selection committee secretary G Selvarajan.
University officials said they had put the affiliation on hold following infrastructural flaws and inadequate patients at hospital. CMDA had issued a lock, seal and demolition notice to the group for unauthorized construction. “This will affect about seven blocks, including the library, hostels and residential quarters for doctors and nurses of the medical college. If these buildings are not there, the college won’t clear the requirements from the Medical Council of India,” said a senior official at the university. Seven more buildings of the group have also been named in the notice.
The university also quoted the flaws pointed out in two inspection reports. The inspection committees said the number of patients in clinical wards were fewer than the required number. The university officials have written to the state health department and the directorate of medical education about the flaws.
