Jaipur: The fresh mop-up round – being undertaken for the admission in medical colleges of Rajasthan – also has hit controversies. Some students and their family members staged protest and shouted slogans at SMS Medical College in Jaipur accusing authorities of favoring some candidates. The police had to intervene and placate the protesting students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mop-up round had earlier been stayed by the Rajasthan\nhigh court on complaints of irregularities in the admission process. The fresh\nround was being held on the direction of the court. However, it has also\ncourted controversies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Sunday, more than 5000 students appeared for counselling.\nSome students alleged that they got admission on NRI seats earlier, but they\nare now being replaced by some other students at the behest of authorities.\nThese students are being unduly favoured, they alleged. They also alleged that\nthe MCI norms are being flouted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The students are supposed to report at their allotted medical\ncolleges for MBBS and BDS courses by 6 pm on August 27. The list of vacant\nseats would be released on August 28. The colleges will complete the admission\nprocess by August 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Rajasthan high court had earlier stayed the mop-up round. On Thursday, a\nsingle bench of the court vacated the stay and gave the state government its\nnod to follow the decision taken by the board of governors of the medical\ncouncil of India (MCI) in this regard. The court directed the state government\nto complete the admission process by August 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The number of students \u2013 participating in the mop-round \u2013 increased by\nalmost 60%. A total of 12,717 students participated in the fresh mop-up round.\nOnly 8092 students were to participate in the previously cancelled mop-up\nround. The increase is due to the inclusion of upgradation and upward movement\nof seats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
