Madras HC slams centre over non-Implementation of OBC reservation in Medical Admissions
National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Post-Graduation 2024 ( NEET PG )
Counselling - 26 Jan '25 - 3 Feb '25
Madras High Court has observed that implementing OBC reservation in All India Quota (AIQ) seats is not a choice of the central government. The court has directed the Union government to put their points before the court as to how they are implementing the 50% reservation. The court has given a week's time to the central government and the next hearing is on July 26.
The court order has come at a time when recently the central government had submitted to Madras High Court that they have no objections against OBC reservation in AIQ to medical admission. The government had also clarified that such a step would only be taken after informing the Supreme Court.

TOI reported that the HC bench observed: "It now appears that the union seeks to change track and keep the implementation of the OBC reservation as per the 1993 state act in suspension till the Saloni Kumari case is decided by the Supreme Court."
