After weeks of uncertainty, medical aspirants may finally get clarity on the NEET PG 2025 counselling process. The Federation of All India Medical Associations (FAIMA) has indicated that counselling is likely to commence by mid-October, following communication with officials from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW).

The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), which oversees the seat allocation process, is expected to announce the official schedule on its website, mcc.nic.in. Once released, candidates will be able to register, fill in their preferences, and participate in the merit-based seat allotment process for postgraduate courses including MD, MS, and PG diplomas.

The delay stems from ongoing legal proceedings. Several petitions filed by candidates and the United Doctors Front (UDF) are pending before the Supreme Court. The apex court has directed the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) to respond within two weeks, a development that could directly impact the counselling timeline.

NEET PG, the gateway to India’s postgraduate medical admissions, holds immense significance for thousands of young doctors nationwide. With the schedule expected soon, candidates have been urged to keep essential documents, certificates, and identification proofs ready for a smooth registration process once counselling begins.
