Calling it mismanagement, the Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA) has strongly criticised the immediate move.
Sharing the notice on the micro-blogging handle, the Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA) wrote, “The university is looting and fleecing lakhs of money from postgraduate medical residents in the name of “late fees” on advance notices of fee deposition- Amounting to a whooping 50 Lakhs + 2nd year fees asked for, just 3 months into the course. 3rd year fees asked for, in the beginning of 2nd year.” FORDA claims that the thesis submission fees have been raised three times just 10 days before the last date.
