Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has instructed district officials to take necessary steps to ensure admission for eligible students from remote areas on "payments seats" in private medical colleges for the MBBS course, he said.
The chief minister gave the directive on learning that 27 students from the tribal-dominated Dantewada district, who had qualified in the National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test (NEET) for undergraduate medical courses, could not register for the first round of counseling due to mobile network and other technical issues, he said.
While the Dantewada district administration had helped these students register for the second round of counseling at the national level, they could not get selected, he said.
Due to lack of second chance for registration at the state level, they could not appear for the next round of counseling for state colleges, he said.
Of the 27 students, two were eligible for admission in MBBS after the first round of counseling, and the district administration will ensure that they get admission in private medical colleges, he added.
If more such students are found, the state government would also facilitate their admission in private medical colleges and bear the expenses, he added.
