"We students got to know this on our call date which started on March 6, 2023, which took us by surprise. We were shown some CCTV footage and were asked to explain our stand for shaking our heads in our respective applicaions. We were informed that we will be notified by April 16 through a mail or call. Our result has been declared on February 3, 2023, which has been published as well in a full fleged official gazette," reads the letter.

These FMG students said that they have already completed their internships and despite passing the licensing exam they are not able to practice.

"As we students are eager to know what's going on some of us even went there to know the status regarding the issue but had been informed no need to come to NBE and we would be notified by May 1, 2023," added the letter.

The students said that their future is at stake and they requested the health minister to take up this matter with NBE.
