The Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) has urged the state government
to restrict B. Pharmacy seats in each pharmacy college to 60. Several
colleges were sanctioned an intake ranging from 100 to 300 seats by the All India
Council for Technical Education, despite a request from the PCI to cap the seats
at 60.
The PCI President, Prof. Suresh and PCI education division chairman Prof.
T. V. Narayana met the officials of the higher education department and urged them
not to grant approvals for more than 60 seats.
They pointed out that the standards in pharmacy education have already touched rock
bottom and further increase in the intake will deteriorate the situation further.
