A writ petition was filed with the High Court on Wednesday seeking cancellation of the "faulty results" of the MBBS admission test for the 2020-2021 academic year and formulation of a new merit list.
The petition was submitted by Supreme Court lawyer Mohammad Humayun Kabir Pallab on behalf of 324 admission seekers.
It claimed that the results published on April 4 contained "numerous errors and major inconsistencies".
According to the rules of admission test published by the Department of Health Education on February 8, if a candidate participates in the admission test for the second time while being enrolled in a medical college, 7.5 marks will be deducted from his total marks. If a candidate appears in the admission test after a delay of one year after passing the HSC exam, 5 marks will be deducted.
But the published results show that this rule was not followed in the case of many candidates.
Earlier on May 11, a legal notice was sent to the authorities concerned by Barrister Pallab and Barrister Mohammad Kawshar over the same matter, reports UNB
