Punjab High Court Halts Property Clause for MBBS Students

Imagine you're studying to become a doctor in Punjab.

The government said you'd have to work for them after school.

They also wanted your family to promise their property to the university.

But the court said that wasn't fair!

So, they stopped the part where students had to risk their family's property.

The court agreed that asking students to guarantee a certain number of years of service in return for their education wasn't the main issue, but demanding that students place their family's property at risk was.

The court said the students only need to promise to serve, without risking their family's assets.

The government says it's to get more doctors in the country's villages, but students think it's unfair.
