Hello there,

If a student decides to leave a government MDS (Master of Dental Surgery) college in the first year, they may be required to pay both the seat discontinuation fee and the bond penalty, depending on the specific rules and regulations of the college or the state government.

Key Points to Consider:

1. Seat Discontinuation Fee: Many government MDS colleges charge a seat discontinuation fee if a student decides to leave the course after securing admission. This fee is meant to compensate for the seat that could have been offered to another candidate.
   
   

2. Bond Penalty: If the college has a bond agreement (usually to ensure that students serve in certain areas or institutions for a specified period), breaking the bond may result in a penalty. This is common in government medical and dental colleges to ensure that graduates serve in public health sectors.
   
   Check Specific College Guidelines:

• College Rules: The exact requirements can vary by college and state, so it's crucial to review the admission documents, bond agreement, and college guidelines.
  
  
• State Regulations: Some states may have specific policies regarding penalties and bond enforcement, which can influence whether both fees are applicable.
