37 MBBS students to be expelled –Unable to clear MBBS for 20 years

Lucknow – The prestigious King George Medical University (KGMU) has decided to give last chance to 37 MBBS students who have been unable to clear MBBS after being admitted to the course more than two decades ago. Dr. Vipin Puri said that these 37 MBBS students have been given several opportunities and concessions so that they could clear the exams but they have failed. The university on the request of these students had constituted a committee to running special classes for them but they still could not clear the exams. The university has offered them counselling also. Dr Puri cited the rules framed by the National Medical Commission (NCM) in 2019 which provided that the students failing to pass the MBBS exams in nine years or in four attempts should be expelled from the course. ”We will give them one last chance to clear the exams. Those who fail will be shown the door” he added.
