The caretaker cabinet of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has made the decision to hold a re-examination for the Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT 2023).
This comes in the wake of serious allegations of widespread cheating during the previous exam which took place on September 10. The KP Advocate General informed the Peshawar High Court about this decision during a hearing on petitions filed regarding the cheating in the MDCAT 2023 exam.
The court is expected to announce its decision on these petitions next Tuesday.
In response, candidates who have successfully passed the test, along with their parents, are staging protests in Peshawar against the decision to have a retest. They argue that it would be a victory for illicit elements if the test is conducted again.
