Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences demands Rs 14 lakh from Victoria Kshetrimayum for providing internship after paying a hefty sum of Rs 36 lakh to complete the course
Dr K Kala Singh of Manipur has complained to the Medical Council of India (MCI) that the college, Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences in Mandya District was demanding Rs 14 lakh for providing internship to his daughter, Victoria Kshetrimayum who had completed the course by paying a total of Rs 36 lakh.
Singh said he paid a capitation fee of Rs 26 lakh. Before the beginning of the final examination in December 2010, the college demanded that he pay an additional Rs 10 lakh. The college refused to issue exam admission card to his daughter unless the money was paid.
I had no means to get this huge amount. I had sold my house and cleared Rs 10 lakh on November 29, in addition to Rs 26 lakh
Adichunchanagiri Medical College Principal Dr Shivaram said that he was not aware of the agreement reached between the college management and Victoria’s father four-and-half years ago when the seat was allotted. So, he can’t comment on the fee issue.
He, however, said the student is pursuing her studies at the college.
