Bhubaneswar: Under attack from several quarters, the Odisha Joint Entrance Examination (OJEE) authorities on Thursday extended the date for candidates who participated in MBBS/BDS counselling to report at allotted colleges in view of severe cyclonic storm ‘Dana’, set to hit the state’s coast by Friday morning.
In view of the cyclone “DANA”, it has been decided to allow reporting of admitted MBBS/BDS candidates in their allotted colleges till 30-10-2024, the OJEE authorities said in a fresh notification.
