Medical admission retake: Students meet health department officials

The students seeking retake of the MBBS and BDS admission tests held a meeting with the officials of the health department this evening.

A team of the students met the officials including Prof Din Md Nurul Haque, directorate general of health services, around 8:30pm at BMA auditorium in Topkhana road in the capital, reports Bangla daily Prothom Alo.

Noted journalist and columnist Syed Abul Maksud, who expressed solidarity with the agitating students, along with other noted personalities also joined the meeting.

Admission seekers protested for weeks demanding a retake of the tests after this year’s medical admission test was smeared by allegations of question leak.
