As such, I was expecting my name in the list of selected candidates for the post of Medical Officers but unfortunately the same was not found in the said list", said an aspirant pleading anonymity and alleging that the candidate who secured 55.56% marks in BAMS (80% of 55.56=44.45) got 18.80(approx 19) marks in interview was selected and same was the case with other candidates.
