The Rajasthan government has constituted a four-member committee to probe into the complaints of irregularities in Rajasthan Pre-Medical Test (RPMT)-2014, an official statement said today.
Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje announced the setting up of the committee last night after meeting scores of annoyed RPMT candidates who protested outside the CM's residence in presence of their parents yesterday.
Besides, there were a number of other reports about alleged irregularities in the RPMT result which was conducted first time on-line in six batches in the state, and the provisional results announced last week.
Chief Minister also asked the Medical and Health Minister Rajendra Rathore to produce a factual report on the alleged RPMT examination process and results declared recently in view of candidates' plaints.
The committee is comprised of former RPMT convenor Dr Rajesh Sharma, Dr R K Manohar, Dr Jagdish Choudhary and IT department secretary Tapan Kumar, and it is likely to submit its report to the CMO within a week.
