The government informed the court that the delay in counselling was due to the lack of clarity regarding the OBC reservation in state medical colleges under AIQ scheme. The Ministry of Health had also requested the Court to allow it to conduct NEET MDS counselling in a virtual manner. NEET MDS 2021 exam was held on December 16, 2020, and the result was announced on December 31, 2020.

This is the first time when OBC and EWS candidates too will have reservation in AIQ seats. On July 29, the Centre approved 27 per cent quota for OBC and 10 per cent reservation for EWS candidates in 50 per cent AIQ seats.
