The President students-parents-teachers' association Y Bala alias Balasubramanian told the TOI, "We suspect that these candidates might have illegally obtained dual nativity – one to apply for admission in Jipmer as Puducherry residents and the other to take Neet from their hometowns to seek admission in colleges in their respective states."
