Aurangabad, May 7:
Finally, the 21 pharmacy research aspirants who were losing hope, received a provisional Ph D admission letter on Saturday. Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University declared over 3,500 candidates eligible for the Ph D admissions in various 40 subjects of the four faculties, including Science and Technology, Commerce and Management Science in February.
A total of 21 candidates who appeared before the Departmental Research Committee (DRC) at Government College of Pharmacy (GCP) in the second week of February were deprived of Ph D admission in Pharmacy because of trivial issues. All the research guides were ready to guide the students for Ph D research, but, the GCP research centre asked the university to give admissions only to seven candidates s per the existing infrastructure and facilities while three researchers were already admitted.
Therefore, the university was not able to issue provisional confirmation letters to the candidates over this issue. Bamu was ready to enhance the number of seats of the GCP on the line of other centres. This newspaper published a news item on April 29 titled ‘21 denied Ph D admission’ highlighting the issue of the research aspirants.
