A significant controversy has come to light at the SMS Medical College in Jaipur concerning allegedly unauthorized counseling activities conducted during the Rajasthan NEET UG Medical and Dental Admission/Counseling process. The official complaint in this matter has been formally submitted by the chairman of the State NEET UG Medical and Dental Counseling Board to the SMS Hospital police station. The complaint explicitly targets a private company along with its associated representatives, accusing them of carrying out illegal counseling sessions and unauthorized promotional activities within the institutional premises.
Unauthorized Video Recording and Viral Reels
Detailing the initial findings and nature of the complaint, SMS Station House Officer (SHO) Jitender Kumar stated that the medical college administration has lodged a formal grievance regarding unauthorized video recording within the premises and the subsequent viral circulation of those reels on social media platforms. The local police authorities are currently conducting a thorough and comprehensive investigation into these allegations and the digital footprints left by the accused individuals.
Misguiding and Confusing Students
The detailed complaint further elaborates that representatives of the private company managed to enter the designated counseling venue and the broader academic campus. Once inside, they actively attempted to lure and provide private counseling services to the participating students, while these representatives aggressively promoted their commercial services in a manner that created a false and deceptive impression of being officially affiliated with the authorized counseling board or institution. The board noted that such presentations and promotional tactics fall squarely into the category of being deeply misleading.
Such coordinated activities have the severe potential to create immense confusion among aspiring students regarding the official admission and counseling procedures, ultimately exposing them to potential financial losses or other forms of distress. Taking these breaches with utmost seriousness, the board has formally requested the law enforcement authorities to thoroughly investigate the specific roles of the individuals involved and their unauthorized presence and activities within the college premises.
Demand for Formal FIR and Digital Evidence
In support of their official grievance, the State NEET UG Medical and Dental Counseling Board has provided crucial evidentiary material to the police. This includes social media promotional content, photographs, and various other digital proofs linked to the company. These submitted materials clearly substantiate the claims regarding the company's promotional activities inside the college campus and its public assertions of offering specialized NEET UG counseling services. Based on these available documents, the board had officially requested the registration of an FIR against the company and its connected representatives in the complaint submitted on October 16.
Official Advisory and Appeal to Students
In the wake of this unfolding incident, the counseling board has issued a strict and urgent appeal to all students and their parents, while the board has strongly advised students to rely exclusively on the authorized counseling board and the official guidelines issued by government institutions for any information or assistance related to the NEET UG counseling process. On top of that, students have been explicitly cautioned to thoroughly verify the legal status and authenticated claims of any private agency before engaging or utilizing their paid services.
