RTI Reveals MBBS Students at RML Hospital Yet to Receive Scholarships
Imagine a scholarship program meant to help medical students with money.
This program was started at a medical school and hospital.
However, even after students applied, no one has received any money.
Students from different years submitted applications at different times.
First-year students applied and got results, then were asked for their bank details.
Some students have been waiting for a long time.
They are frustrated because they were counting on this money, and the administration has not been giving any updates.
Now, the students are reaching out to the authorities, hoping to find a solution.
An RTI revealed no MBBS student has received scholarships under the ABVIMS scheme.
The scheme was launched in January 2024 to support students financially and academically.
Applications were submitted by all eligible batches in early 2024.
Students were informed the scheme was put on hold due to administrative changes.
Students express disappointment, as some relied on these scholarships.
