Imphal, July 18 2013:
With Supreme Court quashing the 'one nation one exam' proposal for admission to MBBS, BDS and post graduate medical courses put up by Medical Council of India (MCI), All Manipur MBBS/BDS Entrance Examination Parents/Guardians Association has appealed to the state government to conduct the Manipur MBBS/BDS Examination-2013 that had been cancelled on May 6, 2013, at the earliest possible.
A three-judge bench of the apex court on Thursday made its final verdict on the petitions filed by around 115 petitioners that challenged the notification of MCI, saying that the notification was in violation of Article 19, 25, 26, 29 and 30 of the constitution of India.
However the court also made it clear that the verdict would not affect the admissions which have already taken place, K Arun Meitei, Secretary of the Parents/Guardians Association stated in a release.
