The MCC added 237 seats by the evening. In which, 97 all-India quota seats were also added to the round 1 seat matrix.

The MCC taken the decision to pause the SS counseling process after the Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA) wrote to the Director General of Health Services mentioning that 250 seats were not being shown in the seat matrix. In round 1 seat matrix the seats from prestigious institutes such as Army Research and Referral hospital and Sir Ganga Ram Hospital were not listed.

FORDA in its letter said, “Seats from these institutions are always opted for by the top-rankers in various specialities…addition of these seats in Round 2 will essentially turn the Round 1 into a mock round as the top-rankers will apply for upgrade in the Round 2.”

The FORDA’s letter also mentioned the details of fee structure, stipend, and bond for each healthcare institute were not yet published. This will become difficult for candidates to select the institution.
