DMK chief M K Stalin has questioned the duplication of names of students from other states in Tamil Nadu’s rank list for admission to MBBS/BDS courses this year, and urged the government to clear anomalies. He also urged the government to ensure allocation of seats to TN students and 7.5% reservation for government school.
“A student ranked seventh in the Kerala state list is shown as second rank-holder in Tamil Nadu rank list. There are seven students from Telangana whose names appear on the merit list of both states,” Stalin said in a statement. “How come students are appearing in the merit and rank lists of several states? If so, how are they managing to submit nativity (residence) certificates from every state while seeking admission into colleges in those states,” Stalin asked, recalling incidences of students submitting bogus nativity certificates in the past.
However, health minister C Vijayabaskar said, “We are taking an undertaking from students that they have not claimed nativity in two states. If there are anomalies their applications will be rejected and legal action will be initiated.”
Selection committee secretary G Selvarajan said the prospectus does not ban students from applying in two states – but they cannot claim nativity in two places.
