Medical Education Minister Ashutosh Tandon said there was report of fleecing by private medical colleges on the name of fees. Once the government has fixed the fee structure, the medical and dental colleges are bound to follow the directives."After the government received complaint of harassment, a committee was set up to suggest fee structure of medical and dental colleges.
The committee gave its recommendations, following which the new fees structure was suggested and after giving a thought, the government has decided to implement it in letter and spirit," the Minister added.
This decision of the government will be binding on all 23 Medical colleges and 13 dental colleges of the state.There were reports that some private medical colleges were charging anything between Rs 21-23 lakh for five-year MBBS course and between Rs 9-13 lakh for the Dental course.Whatever the government has decided, is fixed.
No institution will be allowed to charge capitation fees over and above the fixed fees. Complaints in this regard will be severely dealt with, he added.
