Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) founder Thol. Thirumavalavan on Monday said the NEET exemption Bill, re-adopted by the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly recently, is not against the tenets of Constitution of India as education is a part of concurrent list and both the Centre and State could pass laws on it.
Mr. Thirumavalavan felt attempts to paint the NEET exemption Bill as against the Constitution are “defamatory.”
“The President can provide his assent to Bill passed by Centre and State governments. To state that the NEET exemption Bill goes against the Constitution of India is either a planned exercise to spread lies or is being said without proper understanding of Constitution,” he contended.
