NEET PG counselling 2024 schedule goes viral; aspirants say ‘apke saath prank hua hai’

NEW DELHI: The NEET PG Counselling registration 2024 began on September 20 after much delay due to repeated postponement of the exam. However, the MCC NEET PG counselling schedule 2024 has not yet been uploaded on the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) official website, mcc.nic.in. Students have been flooding X with memes after the NEET PG counselling dates circular went viral on social media platforms.

Six states including Tamil Nadu and Rajasthan have put the state NEET PG counselling 2024 on hold owing to the decision of National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) to withhold the NEET PG raw marks of candidates. The NEET PG cut–off 2024 was also not published along with the NEET PG results.

A total of 19 candidates approached the Supreme Court against the NBEMS and sought the court to direct the board to publish the NEET PG answer key and the normalisation method used to prepare the results to ensure transparency of the exam. The top court took a note of the last-minute exam pattern change and posted the matter for hearing at September end. However, none representing the Centre appeared on the scheduled date. As per reports, the Supreme Court will likely hear the NEET PG petitions on October 25.

Asking the Union health ministry to clarify on the dates, a X user said: “A purported NEET PG 2024 All India MCC Counselling schedule is circulating on social media platforms. However, this schedule is not available on the MCC/NMC websites. Last time, a similar schedule circulated, which turned out to be fake.”

“The amount of mental agony to the PG aspirants is immeasurable. Incompetency of the Government on full display,” another aspirant said.

“A new leaked/fake schedule has dropped,” another aspirant tweeted and shared a meme which read “Yeh apke saath chota sa prank hua hai… (you have been pranked)”.
