Marketing Department outlet of the South Asian Institute of Technology and Medicine (SAITM) has been shut down with effect from yesterday, senior official of SAITM said.

Students’ enrollment to the Medical Faculty in SAITM have been terminated following the Government’s decision to abolish Medical Faculty since end of last year.

    A good slap on ugly faces of those doctor hating colombians who are usually commenting here.

    @Mahesh, Did SAITM start during this government or a former government?

    aruna Tuesday, 20 February 2018 09:53 AM

    Are you happy now? you are also a man who helps this doctors mafia...

    Mahesh Wednesday, 21 February 2018 03:08 PM

    @Cham, That is not relevant here as we not talking about bloody politics.

    Mahesh Wednesday, 21 February 2018 03:12 PM

    @Anura,Yes of course I am extremely happy. And of course I will happily help doctors without any hesitation considering the importance of their service. Who else do you think I should help? A useless colombian keyboard hero like you?

    It must be converted into a state Medical Faculty where clever students with not less than 3 Bs can study and be doctors, to serve the nation, without further delay.

    What has happened to the Engineering faculty of SAITM

    The Marketing Department stopped operating in the 80's. Please do your research.

    This is awful. If private medical education is not for profit, private hospitals, private practice and private channelling also should be not for profit. Why cant the Anthere and ANTISAITM Jana Pawra can not understand this. It is because they are sponsored by the GMOA. SAITM should not have stopped the recruitments as the agreement did not fulfil issues of unilateral concerns. I think it is right time for Dr Nevil Fernando to stand for his rights now. People and the government should listen to sitam side story too. as nobody concerned about them. The started this venture with Government approval and UGC approval. That is why parents put their children to SAITM. The ultimate solution should be the Supreme court decision.
