They carried banners and festoons saying they will not allow the government to implement the decision. They said none has the right to play game with their career.
Recently, the health minister announced that a new system for admission into Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) and Bachelor of Dental and Surgery (BDS) courses will be introduced this year.
According to the new rule, a merit list of the admission-seekers who passed the HSC examination last year will be prepared by deducting marks from their total number.
Besides, a merit list of fresh admission-seekers now studying in any medical colleges or other colleges will be prepared by deducting 7.5 marks.
