Doctors unhappy with Neet norms

MBBS graduates in the state are up in arms against the Centre’s NEET (National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test) notification for PG medical admission.
Doctors fear that the Centre has given them a raw deal by notifying Neet for PG medical admission in its present form.
As per the notification, MBBS graduates would be admitted to all but premier Central medical institutions.
They would have to take separate tests for admissions to AIIMS, JIPMER and NIMHANS among others, undoing the purpose of NEET, which was introduced to spare medicos from taking too many entrance tests for PG admission.
Saritha Jayakumar, a final-year MBBS student in a government medical college, says, “Why should I take an eligibility test after completing MBBS? Is my UG medical degree of no value?”






“I will have to spend several thousands to take separate tests in New Delhi, Chandigarh and Bengaluru for different Central institutions,” complained Arthy Sarvanan, another medico.
“It is ok to have entrance tests for finalising candidates for limited PG seats. But, eligibility test is unwarranted at PG level,” DASE president, Dr G.R. Ravindarnath, argued.
Neet should be replaced with a common ‘entrance’ test covering all Central institutions, management quota seats in private institutions and DNB (Diplomate in National Board).
Also, cut-off marks for SC/STs, OBCs and OCs should be eliminated and seats ought to be allotted based on total marks scored in the entrance test, Dr Ravindarnath emphasised, adding that the Centre should not infringe on state’s rights in allotting 50 per cent seats under its purview.
“The Centre should not interfere in state medical college admissions. It should allow states to apply systems of their own,” he argued.
The new notification also makes it mandatory for states to obtain the consent of the Centre and MCI to fill vacant ‘reserved’ PG seats every year.
This stringent provision would deprive states of their rights and directly affect reservation as the MCI and Union are for transferring vacant reserved seats to OC category.
Chief minister Jayalalithaa wrote to the PM opposing a similar notification for BDS admission months back.

He told to sources that he had a discussion with Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad over this issue and indicated that from 2014 the State students will be in a better position to join NEET UG.
The issues Mr. Reddy highlighted seems to be the difference in the syllabus, the EAMCET is based on the Board of Intermediate Education syllabus but NEET UG is based on CBSE syllabus. Thus Reddy is expecting to free it’s students from NEET UG in the coming year, a response or final confirmation from Health Ministry or the MCI is awaited.

State govt says no to NEET, to file petition in HC

Hindustan Times
Patna, September 25, 2012

The Bihar government may file a writ petition in the Patna high court against the Medical Council of India's proposed move to hold a National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) for admission to post graduate medical courses and MBBS courses from the next academic sessions
countrywide.
"We have sent a proposal to the government for moving the high court against the MCI's notifications for holding the NEET-PG as well as NEETUG from the next sessions," controller of examination, health department, Dr NP Yadav told HT on Monday.
"The Bihar government's stand is clear on this count. It doesn't want either NEETPG or NEET-UG. It is strongly in favour of holding its own examinations," Yadav added. He argued, that students from Bihar would face several hurdles in competing in the single entrance tests, as they had hardly any facility for coaching in the state. Also, the syllabus being followed by the Bihar School Examination Board was quite different from that of the Central Board of Secondary Education.
While the CBSE has been notified to conduct the NEETUG, the National Board of Examinations (NBE) has been made the agency to conduct NEET-PG.
In order to conduct a single all India test for admission to MBBS and PG courses in MS/MD, the central government has notified NEET-UG and NEET-PG.
While the single combined test for admission to MBBS courses will be organized in May next year, the exercise for NEET-PG will begin from November 23 this year. This will be a computer based test (CBT) to be organized in 33 cities.
As per the notification, NEETPG is a mandatory test for gaining entry to Md/MS/PPG diploma courses at all medical colleges under the ambit of PGME Regulation of the MCI.
No candidate, who fails to obtain the minimum eligibility marks as prescribed, shall be admitted to any post graduate courses, the notification said.
