UPPER AGE LIMIT FOR NEET CONFIRMED

The Delhi High Court has ruled saying that those above 25 years of age can’t take NEET.
 

NEET is mandatory for those who have completed Class 12 and desirous of joining medicine. With respect to NEET, the Medical Council of India had announced the upper age limit for those intending to take up NEET and decided that those above 25 years of age can’t take up the exam in the case of general category. The age relaxation for minorities was fixed at 30.
 

But the recently conducted NEET exam was taken up by candidates, some of whom were oblivious of the limitations with regards to age constraints. A case was filed by two youths in Kerala, who moved the Delhi High Court, seeking clarification on the age ambiguity of the exam.
 

With the same coming before the HC today, it stood by the guidelines issued by the Medical Council of India and upheld the same.
