MBBS Counselling to resume on August 9

The Pioneer reported that State Government finds itself in a catch-22 situation on whether to roll back the hiked admission fees for the medical streams or not. It says,

the JEE counselling for the medical stream (MBBS) has been shifted to August 9 and 10. All the decisions regarding the revision of the fee-structures would be announced before the scheduled period.

The State Government has already sent its appeal to the Fee Structure Committee headed by Justice KP Mohapatra to reconsider its decision regarding the hike in fees. One student has to pay at least Rs 4.5 lakh to get into the medical stream in any of the private medical college in the State. The fees have been hiked from earlier Rs 2.5 lakh to a whooping Rs 4.5 lakh.

As Justice Mohapatra, is away from Orissa and would be back on July 22, so all decisions regarding fee- revision have been put on hold, as of now. However, sources added, the Fee Structure Committee would at best lessen the fees by Rs 50,000 and not more than that. Earlier, it was proposed to limit the fee structure to Rs 4 lakh and later it was hiked to Rs 4.5 lakh. However, the private engineering colleges are not in a mood to listen to the Government’s plea to lessen the fee structure.

The detailed counseling dates are given in the Orissa JEE site.
