Reduce the cost of private medical education

Compared to the number of patients the number of medical practitioners in Bangladesh are much inadequate. There are not much medical college hospitals in the country as much as is needed. That’s why many medical students have to depend on private medical colleges. But the cost of study in private medical colleges is increasing again and again. In the academic year 2022-23, admission fees for MBBS and BDS in private medical colleges and dental colleges were increased by 20 percent. This year affiliate fees are increasing six times more, which is very unpleasant.
