Govt to file review petition against SC verdict on NEET
Indian government will
very soon file a review petition against the Supreme Court verdict on NEET. The top court of India scrapped NEET (National Eligibility Cum Entrance
Test) last month on 18 July 2013 telling that Medical Council of India (MCI) has no right to implement common Medical Entrance Exam in the country. The
court had also added that MCI notification for NEET violates Articles 19, 25,
26, 29 and 30 of the Indian constitution. According to the top court of India,
NEET violates the rights of States and Private Medical Colleges of India.
NEET
is a common entrance exam for taking admission into various
MBBS and BDS colleges of India. NEET was conducted this year by CBSE (Central
Board of Secondary Education). MCI had introduced NEET to reduce the burden
from the shoulders of Medical students. NEET was implemented to replace various
Medical exams like AIPMT, PMT-Mains,
BHU, AFMC, all State Medical exams
and exams conducted by different Private
Medical Colleges of India. NEET was also introduced to check corruption in
the Private Medical Colleges during admission.
Some states and many
Private Medical Colleges of India were not happy with the arrival of NEET.
Hence they appealed against this decision of MCI in the Supreme Court of India.
A three-judge bench of Supreme Court dismissed NEET last month and allowed all
states and Private Medical Colleges of India to conduct their own entrance
exams from the next year. It was a great setback for the Indian government and
MCI. Hence government has now decided to file a review petition in Supreme
Court on NEET.
While answering a
question asked by an MP of Rajya Sabha
of Indian Parliament, Minister for
Health and Family Welfare Ghulam Nabi Azad told that according to Indian
government it would be in the larger interest of society and students aspiring
to become doctor to have NEET. Hence it has been decided to file a review
petition against Supreme Court verdict on NEET. Recently an NGO from Delhi also filed a review
petition for NEET in the Supreme Court. Read this story in detail by clicking on the link given below.
Students preparing for
Medical exam are still not sure about the format of Medical entrance exam next
year. NEET was introduced to save time, money and reduce pressure from the
shoulders of students. But these ongoing
incidents are really not helping their cause. Medical students are really
worried about their preparation now. Indian Government and the Supreme Court of
India must solve this issue immediately or the preparations of Medical students
will be affected.
