Kerala: 3 medicos debarred for five years for impersonation in MBBS exam
Kollam: In stringent action against impersonation in the MBBS exam held at Kollam Azeezia Medical College, the Kerala University of Health Sciences (KUHS) has debarred three medical students for five years from writing examinations after it was found that the medicos cheated by using proxy candidates.
Suspicion grew as in the answer sheets of these students there were variations in the registration serial number. Consequently, the college and the University decided to probe further and they found that the handwriting did not match with their previous answer sheets. The authorities also found a mismatch in the barcodes on the registration number slip and the answer book.
Subsequently, the university called for a police probe and cancelled the exam centre at the college which has become a matter of concern as the university is yet to provide an alternative for the medicos, reports The Indian Express.
