“We will organise a gathering followed by protest rally at Agartala on August 27 next”, INPT leader Nagendra Jamatia told reporters here at Agartala Press Club on Tuesday.
“We have approached the MCI and Union government on the issue. Both the authority is yet to communicate their decisions on further cut-off marks relaxations for the tribal and scheduled caste students seeking admission to MBBS courses" said Jamatia.
“Besides, state government should take positive step immediately to resolve the deadlock”, he added.
According to the MCI guidelines, an unreserved aspirant would have to secure at least 50 percent marks in both higher secondary and joint entrance examination. The cut-off for SC and ST students is 40 percent.
Separately, Joint Action Committee resorted to two-day long fast seeking admission to MBBS course through joint entrance examination from Wednesday.
For the last one month, the Committee has been demanding grace marks for the unsuccessful SC and ST candidates.
The Committee would also submit memorandum to the Governor and Chief Minister on the issue.
Earlier, some individuals and organisations had also filed cases in the Guwahati High Court seeking directives for further relaxation of cut-off marks.
