A dental student has been allegedly charged for submitting a forged mark-sheet of her NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) exam in order to get admission to the College of Dental Sciences and Research Center in Manipur.
NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) is mandatory for enrolment in the BDS degree.
Deval Mehta, the college principal, filed a complaint against the student on Friday with the Bopal Police Station. According to the complaint, the student had scored 50 marks in the examination but submitted a mark-sheet showing 279 marks to the college. The college authorities have to upload the documents of all the admitted students to the Dental Council of India (DCI) website. The incident came to light when the website showed a discrepancy in marks and they could not upload the mark sheet.
The College of Dental Sciences and Research Center, Manipur, has a total of 100 seats for the Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS), of which, the state’s government centralized admission committee filled 75 seats while the remaining 25 seats were to be filled by the college.
