Hyderabad, June 28: The state government on Saturday ratified the seats filled up under the competent authority quota by the private medical and dental colleges in the last two academic years. These seats were filled up after the final round of counselling by the college authorities without the involvement of the NTR University of Health Sciences based on the earlier order issued by the state government.
The move of ratifying the admissions came as a reprieve for students of MS, MD and MDS courses for the academic years 2006-07 and 2007-08. The principal secretary (health and medical education), Mr P.K. Agarwal said, "Students may not join within the stipulated date announced by the NTR University of Health Sciences. Managements would fill up those seats if admissions are not done on time. Seats filled up without prior permission are ratified."
The ratification order was issued by the AP Private Medical and Dental Colleges Managements Association. The decision was taken in the interest of the students admitted in these colleges as otherwise their career will be at stake. The state government is also trying to get the approval from the Medical Council of India for the cancelled seats. "We already got the permission for 93 seats and we are trying for another 43," said Mr Agarwal.
