Kerala - Kozhikode

KSSP objects to terms of accord

Special Correspondent

KOZHIKODE: The Kerala Shastra Sahitya Parishad (KSSP) has objected to the terms of the proposed agreement that the State government is reported to have struck with private medical college managements.

The KSSP has asked the government to take a tough stand on the question of the fee to be charged and not to succumb to the pressure tactics of the managements.

“Managements of private medical colleges are trying to blackmail the government exploiting the government’s apparent eagerness to ensure there is no reduction in the number of medical college seats this year.”
