Shillong, Sept 04: The Khasi Students Union let by its President today met the Meghalaya Health Minister Dr. Ampareen Lyngdoh and submitted memorandum to express their grievances against the MBBS quota list 2023.
In the memorandum the KSU pointed out the after a thorough investigation, observed that there are certain candidates selected in the Open Category and its Waiting List who are submitting documents not eligible as per the criteria issued by the Directorate of Health Services, Government of Meghalaya.
Also certain candidates in the above-mentioned list are submitting Birth Certificates which are incomplete and dubious in nature. One of the conditions issued by the DHS is that a copy of the Permanent Residential Certificate (PRC) is mandatory for all applicants.
However many selected candidates from the Open Category did not submit the necessary document. The following are the details of 10 candidates who did not fulfil the required criteria, Mehbub Hassan: PRC was not submitted but instead a Provisional PRC was submitted issued on the 7th June 2023 in Dadenggre and valid for only 12 months.
The candidate was born in the year 2001 and Birth Certificate was issued in 2019 which lacks a proper serial number and a court order to verify the same. Monimul Ekram Mondal, No Birth Certificate submitted. A PPRC valid for only 3 months submitted. No PRC submitted.
Ayush Kumar Submitted only a Birth Certificate from Bihar without a Court Order, a CBSE document from Rajasthan and a PRC from East Jaintia Hills. Md Mahmadul Islam, Submitted a Birth Certificate which was issued in 2012, registered on 2002 although the person was born the year, that is 2003.No PRC submitted but a PPRC from West Garo Hills valid for 12 months was submitted.
Atifa Zaman: No Birth Certificate submitted. No PRC submitted. PPRC from West Garo Hills submitted valid for only 12 months. Chiranjit Kumar Paul Birth Certificate issued in 2008 whereas the individual was born in 2005. However Court Order is absent in the said Certificate. No PRC submitted but instead a PPRC was submitted valid only for 12 months.
Deeya Choudhary, PRC submitted but no Birth Certificate. Further verification required regarding her place of birth. Angoor Zaman Hoque, Birth Certificate submitted lacks Court Order and Serial Number. No PRC submitted but a PPRC from West Garo Hills valid for 12 months was submitted.
Abdul Kalam Golam Mahdi Alom, Birth Certificate issued on 2014, 12 years after his birth lacks Court Order and a serial number. No PRC submitted. PPRC issued on 16th May 2023 valid for only 3 months submitted and Habibur Rehman, A candidate that features in the Waiting List of the Open Category did not submit a PRC but in its place a PPRC valid for only 12 months submitted. Place of birth not determined.
As mentioned earlier, the above 10 candidates did not submit relevant documents as per the directives of the DHS. Also absence of PRC as one of the submitted document invites disqualification of such candidates.
The submitted Birth Certificates which are devoid of a Serial Number and a Court Order should attract a thorough investigation as to how such documents are issued by the concerned authorities.
Through this missive, the KSU seeks immediate disqualification of the above 10 candidates from the Open Category List and in their place, genuine and bonafide candidates should be included.
The Union hopes that the Government will take necessary steps so as to ensure that rightful candidates from the state are not deprived of their rights and candidates with dubious antecedents are penalized as per the law of the land. The same memorandum was also submitted to the Chief Minister, the memorandum sign by the President Mr. Lambokstarwell Marngar and General Secretary Mr. Donal V Thabah.
