Jabalpur: The admission of 107 students who took admission in the MBBS course in 2017-18 academic session under NRI (non-resident Indian) quota fraudulently in Madhya Pradesh has been cancelled.

Madhya Pradesh Director of Medical Education submitted the information during the hearing of a petition before the High Court.

A division bench of Justices R S Jha and Nandita Dubey while expressing dissatisfaction over the examination of admissions carried out during the mop-up round, issued directives to re-examine these admissions. The next date of hearing has been fixed on December 11.

Petitions filed Khandwa-resident Priyanshu Agrawal and four others stated that non-eligible students who secured less marks and who do not have a domicile in the state had been provided admissions in private medical colleges in violation of rules during the mock-up round.
