Bhopal: Alarm bells are ringing in Madhya Pradesh as more than 16,000 seats in B.Pharmacy and D.Pharmacy courses remain unfilled, raising urgent questions about student interest, institutional appeal and policy gaps. The state's Technical Education Department has launched second-phase counselling and is scrambling to boost choice filling by October 7.
According to a recent media report in Naidunia, in the first round, roughly 14,000 students were allotted seats out of a total 28,820 seats. Yet, about 7,802 seats in B.Pharm and 8,849 seats in D.Pharm lie vacant. To mitigate this, college-level counselling (CLC) will be held, and students will be allowed multiple rounds of online registration between October 17–30.
