Following the move, the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) is expected to announce further rounds of NEET PG 2024 counselling to provide admissions to candidates who will become eligible after lowering of NEET PG 2024 cut-off percentile.

The Indian Medical Association-Junior Doctors Network (IMA-JDN) had written to the Union health minister JP Nadda demanding the reduction in cut-off. The doctors’ body argued that unfilled medical seats lead to shortage of resources in healthcare services.
