Punjab govt issues MBBS degree to Ludhiana doctor after NCSC's directions

Chandigarh, Sep 14 (UNI) After the National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC)'s directions, the Punjab government had on Tuesday issued the MBBS degree to Ludhiana based SC doctor, which was withheld by the college authorities due to amendments in the Post Matric Scholarship (PMS) scheme for SC students.
During a recent meeting at New Delhi, Commission chairman Vijay Sampla had asked Punjab government officials and college authorities to immediately release the degree of Dr Sheena Mattu.
As per information received by NSCS from Dr Sheena Mattu, her scholarship amount was not paid by the state government. Dr Mattu informed that she got admission in Dayanand Medical College, Ludhiana (Punjab) in 2015 under the ‘Management Quota' and she was paid scholarship amount for the first two years but the state government decided to discontinue it after receiving a circular from the central government. The college also refused to issue an MBBS degree to the student.
