MCC Notice on NEET UG 2021 Counselling

The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has issued a notice for the NEET UG 2021 candidates who are waiting for the counselling process to commence. According to MCC, a petition filed on July 30 on the Implementation of OBC and EWS reservation in All India Quota is under challenge before the Supreme Court of India.

As per the Vide Order dated November 25, the hearing of the case is scheduled to take place on January 6, 2022. Hence, it is likely that MCC will announce the NEET 2021 counselling process after the Supreme Court hearing.

The notification states, “All candidates desiring to participate in NEET-UG, 2021 Counselling are hereby informed that the Office Memorandum No. C.18018/18/2015- ME-II dated 30.07.2021 (Copy enclosed) is under challenge in W.P(C) No. 961 of 2021 before the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India.”

Although no clarity has been given regarding the NEET counselling schedule, it can be implied that the information would be released only after the Supreme Court hears the aforementioned case.

NEET 2021 was conducted on September 12 and the result was declared on November 1. While some state authorities have started conducting the counselling process for the 85 per cent State Quota seats, the 15 per cent All India Quota (AIQ) seats counselling is still awaited.
