Govt sold 152 PG medicine seats: Chinta Mohan

Congress party senior leader and former Union minister Chinta Mohan has alleged that the AP state government has sold 152 PG medicine seats for Rs 3 crore each in Nandyal, Rajahmundry, and Vizianagaram.
Addressing a press conference here on Monday, the Congress questioned whether the Medical Council of India has given permission to sell the seats. For this purpose the name of NTR Health University was renamed YSR Health University, he questioned.
Chinta Mohan ridiculed the YSRCP’s Samajika Sadhikara Yatra programmes. He cited that there is no statue of former Prime Ministers Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi in Tirupati but there are four statues of later Chief Minister YS Rajasekhar Reddy.
Taking a dig at the BJP, Chinta Mohan alleged that the BJP pursued the British style of political conspiracies to demean the opposition parties and misuse of central agencies to throttle the democratic process and institutions.
The Congress leader said that the union government which boasted of rocket technology and Chandrayaan had failed to rescue labour trapped in the Uttarakhand tunnel crash in Uttarakhand.
Citing a survey report conducted by an English daily, he predicted that the Congress party would come to power in Telangana state by winning 83 seats out of 119 seats in the November 30 election.
