Hyderabad, July 20: Angered by the ?meagre? fee hike allowed by the state government, medical and dental colleges in the state have threatened not to admit students this year.
The government on Tuesday issued orders increasing the fees for MBBS and BDS courses by 10 per cent this year much to the disappointment of college managements which had sought a hike of 40 per cent.
?We will not give admissions for students this year with the present fee structure,? said Mr Puvvada Ajay Kumar, president of the Association of Private Medical and Dental Colleges of AP.
?We have also decided to approach AP High Court against the government.?
Students and parents are worried over the developments as the Eamcet counselling for admissions will begin from July 25.
