Reducing Cut Off News Today

Union Health Ministry officials on Friday said reducing the qualifying percentile for NEET PG 2023 to zero will increase the pool of qualifying candidates but not dilute the merit system for admission to PG medical courses. Only those scoring the highest marks will get admission for PG medical courses, they said.

Reducing the cut-off to provide employment to a particular category, when others have already acquired rights due to the publication of results, would be an affront to Article 14 of the Constitution, Supreme Court said.
