The students and parents have approached the government and complained against the college. Mr. Prabodh Saxena, Principal Secretary (Health) said that the college had been directed to admit the selected students under both government and management quota. It is not possible to increase the fee as the admission process concluded. He directed the college to complete the admission process.

This has become a critical situation for the government. The government has to take steps to complete the admission process without increasing the fee.
One of the parents said that the government had fixed Rs. 5,00,000 per annum as the course fee is ten times more than the fee charged under government quota. On the other hand, three medical colleges have already completed the admission process and the classes will commence from September 15, 2016.
