SUBJECT: ADMISSIONS TO Bachelor OF NURSING, BACHELOR of Physiotherapy & Bachelor of Medical Lab. Technology COURSES (PPMET-2004)
 

1.         GENERAL

(a)               The Governor of Punjab is pleased to notify admissions to under-graduate Degree courses in Bachelor of Science Nursing (B.Sc.), Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT) and Bachelor of Medical Laboratory Technology (BMLT)   courses in the institutions of the state of Punjab.  This notification is issued in accordance with the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in T.M.A. PAI Foundation Vs. State of Karnataka [ (2002) 8- SCC-481] and Islamic Academy of Education Vs. State of Karnataka [ ( 2003) 6- SCC -697].

(b)               The salient points of the Supreme Court decisions are:

(1)               The state government would fix the percentage of government and management (minority) quota in private medical institutions in the state. In fixing the percentage the state must keep in mind the local needs and the interests of the minority community in the state. The private institutions, if not satisfied with the distribution of the seats, can approach the committee headed by a retired High Court Judge.
 

(2)               The status of an institution as minority institution is to be determined by taking the State as unit.
 

(3)               All the seats in government colleges and government quota seats in private colleges will be filled up on the basis of merit in the common entrance test      (PPMET-2004) conducted by the university.
 

(4)               The management (minority) quota seats can be filled up either from the PPMET-2004 conducted by the university or the  common entrance test conducted by the association of all private colleges. If no such test is held by the private colleges then the management seats would also be filled up on the basis of merit in university conducted test. Institutions holding their own test for more than 25 years can be exempted from these two tests and can be permitted to have their own test provided they exercise the  option and are permitted by the  committee of  a retired High Court Judge.
 

(5)               The management (minority) quota seats would be filled up strictly on the basis of inter se merit of the students belonging to minority community in the competitive test and there would be no sub-reservation/quota for any sub category in these seats.
 

(6)               All the seats would be filled strictly on the basis of merit and there would be no sub quota/sub reservation in either the government seats or the management seats except for the constitutional reservation provided by the government.
 

(7)               There would be uniform fee-structure for both government and management seats. The private colleges can propose their own fee-structure, which would be subject to approval by the committee of retired High Court Judge.

(c)               The Governor of Punjab is further pleased to notify that all the institutions whether government or private, aided or unaided, minority or non-minority shall be covered by this notification.

(d)               The Governor of Punjab is further pleased to appoint Baba Farid University of Health Sciences, Faridkot to conduct the Punjab Para Medical Entrance Test - 2004 (PPMET-2004) in three compulsory subjects of Physics, Chemistry and Biology for selection of candidates for admission to Bachelor of Nursing,  Bachelor of Physiotherapy and Bachelor of Medical Laboratory Technology   courses in the institutes situated in  the state of Punjab.

(e)               The government has not been approached by the association of all the private  colleges in regard to the common entrance test of their own. Accordingly the management/minority quota seats in private colleges will be filled up on the basis of merit in the PPMET-2004 conducted by the university. The government quota seats in all private colleges including minority colleges  would be filled up from the PPMET-2004 merit list.

(f)                 The Christian Nursing College (CNC) Ludhiana claims to be more than 25 years old  conducting its own Admission Test for more than 25 years.  The college has however so far not produced permission  from the Admissions Committee headed by the retired HC Judge. The minority Christian quota seats in the college will hence fore  be filled up from the PPMET-2004 conducted by the university.
