To boost the availability of medical personnel for Covid management, the government on Monday postponed the NEET for PG medical admissions till August 31.
Health Ministry Joint Secretary Lav Agarwal said, “The decision has been taken so that medical interns preparing for the exams can be made available for the pandemic response. Students will be given at least one month for preparation while announcing the revised date.”
The government decided to allow final-year MBBS students to conduct tele-consultation and monitor mild Covid cases under the care of senior doctors. The decisions were taken at a meet chaired by the PM.
