Madhya Pradesh to Conduct MBBS & BDS exams through CBSE

Keeping in view the various scams occurred last year in the MP Pre-Medical Test (MPPMT) examinations, the Director of Medical Education Madhya Pradesh has decided to conduct medical entrance tests in the state through other organization instead of state’s Professional Examination Board (Vyapam).

The director said that they have decided to conduct MBBS and BDS Entrance Examination through CBSE and the MDS entrance test through AIIMS from next year onwards. The proposal regarding this was on the talk, said a release.

The Director of MP Medical Education said that MPPMT has been caught up with scams from the last few years, and this year, i.e., in 2013, a number of students were found guilty and disqualified in the exam after checking their copies.

Cases against those guilty students have already been filed with the High Court, and the decision on their fate is yet to come.
