“The move is aimed to expose ghost faculty that is arranged by certain homoeopathic colleges during the inspection to show that they have required strength of teachers to run their colleges.” -Dr AK Dwivedi
“Some private colleges have either ghost medical faculties or guest lecturers to teach students and same faculty members are registered with many colleges simultaneously. This malpractice will end when details of faculty members get uploaded and linked with a particular code,” he further added
