Former officer demands cancellation of MBBS second-round admissions
Vijay Kumar says a medical-college admission round was not conducted fairly.
He wants the second round of MBBS admissions cancelled.
He says reservation rules were not followed properly.
He also says candidates should have been allowed to choose as many colleges as they wanted.
One BC-B candidate with a NEET rank of 31,325 was allegedly unable to get a seat at Guntur Medical College.
Vijay Kumar believes the way college choices were processed caused this problem.
He says about 70 reserved-category candidates faced similar difficulties.
A parents’ association leader also questioned whether the government could limit students’ college choices.
Vijay Kumar demanded cancellation of the second round of MBBS admissions conducted by Dr NTR University of Health Sciences.
He alleged that the admissions process violated reservation norms and involved several irregularities.
He cited Government Order No. 102, which allows candidates to choose any number of colleges in preferred order during each counselling round.
He said a BC-B candidate ranked 31,325 in NEET missed a possible open-category or MRC seat at Guntur Medical College because of how options were handled.
