Andhra Pradesh: ‘State misled High Court on setting up medical college in Nandyal’

The Rayalaseema Saguneeti Sadhana Samithi, which filed a writ petition in the Andhra Pradesh High Court against acquisition of 50 acres belonging to the Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS) at Nandyal for setting up a medical college, has accused the State government of misleading the court with regard to the time period within which application should be submitted to the National Medical Commission (NMC).

Samithi president Bojja Dasaratharami Reddy told The Hindu that the State’s counsel had informed the court that the deadline for submitting the application for establishing a medical college was July 15, 2022, with building inspection being scheduled for December 2022.

However, as per the NMC’s official website, the date for submitting the application had commenced on July 21 and would end on August 10, 2022.
