Jammu, November 8: Taking a step to ensure proper rehabilitation of the terror victim families, the Union Home Ministry has asked all states and Union Territories to reserve some MBBS seats from Central Pool for spouses and children of terrorist victims for the academic year 2022-23.

In the letter, it has been mentioned that children whose both parents have been killed by terrorists will be given the first priority in the allocation of MBBS or BDS seats. Children of families whose sole bread earners have been killed by terrorists will be given second priority.
