Delhi High Court (HC) has directed the AIIMS authorities to pay Rs.50,000 as costs to MBBS aspirant to whom AIIMS did not allow to appear in AIIMS MBBS Entrance Exam 2018.
The AIIMS authorities did not allow the candidate to take the entrance exam after his Aadhaar card could not be scanned at the centre.
The court observed that the controller of examination of AIIMS adopted a callous attitude in unnecessarily depriving the student from appearing in the exam
The court, however, refused to order a re-exam, saying it would cause a lot of disturbance to other students who have already appeared in the test and it would be unfair to impose the burden of another exam on the other candidates.
