The Islamabad High Court (IHC) Monday summoned the Registrar of Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) in a case challenging the council's rules restraining students from appearing in examinations for more than four times. Justice Aamir Farooq of IHC heard the case filed by the student Sadia Nawaz Khan through her counsel Zulifqar Ahmed Bhutta.
The court directed Registrar PMDC to appear before the court on Tuesday to respond on the matter. The petitioner had adopted the stance that she was the student of MBBS second year in Wah Medical College. She contended that due to unavoidable circumstances it became difficult for her to continue study in this college so she moved several applications to PMDC for her transfer to any other college in Rawalpindi but all this went in vain.
She said due to unavoidable circumstances she could not succeed in four attempts in second year, however she got order from civil court for one more chance to appear in the examination of second year but she was not permitted to sit in the examination held in Lahore last month under University of Health Sciences.
