The Congress party condemned the government for the continued delay in NEET-PG admissions despite results being announced in August 2024. Opposition General Secretary Jairam Ramesh criticized Health Minister JP Nadda, highlighting the impact on 80,000 medical post-graduate aspirants and demanding an explanation for the unacceptable delay.

The Congress on Tuesday criticized the government for the persistent delay in NEET-PG admissions, which remain incomplete months after the results were declared last August.

Jairam Ramesh, Congress General Secretary for communications, posed a public question to Union Health Minister JP Nadda regarding the issue.

Ramesh highlighted that it has been over six months since the results were announced on August 23, 2024, and yet, admissions have not proceeded, affecting 80,000 aspiring medical post-graduates. He deemed the delay 'unacceptable' and demanded a response.
