The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed Tamil Nadu to conduct postgraduate admissions to the Vellore Christian Medical College (CMC) from the NEET merit list of students belonging to the Christian minority, after counselling is conducted by the State Selection Committee.
A Bench led by Justice L. Nageswara Rao said the order was passed taking into consideration the peculiar circumstances of the case. "We are of the considered view that for the academic year 2021-2022, students shall be allotted for PG admissions by the State government from the NEET merit list of students belonging to Christian minority, to all the PG seats from the list after counselling is conducted by Selection Committee," the court ordered.
