Law and Higher Education Minister T.B. Jayachandra said the govt would appeal against the SC order on NEET.

Bengaluru: The state government has asked second year PU students to appear for the first phase of National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for admission to MBBS and BDS courses on Sunday and also the Common Entrance Test scheduled for May 4 and 5.

At a joint press conference here on Saturday, Law and Higher Education Minister T.B. Jayachandra and Medical Education Minister Dr Sharanprakash Patil said the government would appeal against the Supreme Court order on NEET, which is coming up for hearing on May 3.

“But it is better for the students to appear for both NEET 1 and CET. The government will file a petition seeking the apex court’s permission to implement its NEET order from the next academic year,” they said.
