Ambedkar Medical College and Dr B.R. Ambedkar Dental Colleges. Though the college employee association members, activists and few members of the administration committee have filed complaints to the Governor’s office, Chief Secretary of Karnataka government, no action has been initiated in this regard,” he alleged.
He said that since 2008-09 till date, thousands of illegalities have come forward regarding admission under the management quota. “After the appointment of Amaunalla Khan, a fourth-grade officer as a PRO, the failed students were given admissions violating all rules and guidelines,” Ramesh said. N.R.

He alleged that Amanulla Khan is presently constructing his medical college in Krishnagiri district of Tamil Nadu at a cost of Rs 500 crore .“Under Kharge, his son-in-law Radhakrishna, the man who took nine years to complete the MBBS course with 18 attempts has been appointed as the professor. That person has suspiciously completed MD course as well,” Ramesh said. Radhakrishna Doddamani is contesting as the Congress candidate from Kalaburagi which is going to polls on Tuesday.
