The Tamil Nadu government has asked the Centre to fill 24 vacant MBBS seats that are vacant in the state-run colleges after four rounds of MBBS counseling.
On Saturday, the Tamil Nadu Medical Education and Health Minister Ma Subramanian said that the state government has asked the Centre to take a step in filling 24 MBBS seats that are vacant in the state-run colleges after four rounds of MBBS counseling.
The MBBS seats in both private and government medical colleges had already been filled through All India Quota. However, 24 of them have fallen vacant, said the state Medical Education and Health Minister.
The health department has sent a letter to the Centre and we have urged officials to fill the seats at the earliest.
The officials have mentioned that nearly 300 seats were lying vacant across the country under the All India Quote, for which an affidavit had been filed in the Supreme Court seeking more time and those seats will be filled at the earliest.
