Dr Mansukh Mandaviya, the union minister of Health and Family welfare tweeted that, as per the advice given by the ministry to the resident doctors, the counselling of the NEET PG 2021 will be commenced from January 12, 2020 by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC). The result of the NEET PG 2021 was published on September 28, 2021.
The ministry has taken the decision following the Supreme Court of India order of validating the reservation given to the Other Backward Sections (OBC) and the Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) on January 7, 2022. The court has assured a reservation of 27% for the OBC candidates and 10 % for the EWS candidate.
NEET PG 2021 Counselling Date Announced

The minister said in the tweet that the counselling and the admission of resident doctors to the PG medical courses will help to strengthen India in the fight against the covid pandemic. The third wave of covid has reportedly started in India as the number of covid cases are increasing in India day by day.
Even after declaring the results of the NEET PG 2021 the counselling process was halted due to a case filed in the supreme court against the reservation given to OBS and EWS candidates. The schedule of the NEET PG 2021 counselling and the details of the available number of seats will be released on the official website of the MCC at mcc.nic.in.
