NEET PG 2020 Counselling: Only physical reporting for the second round

Due to the shortage of medical professionals, the reporting phase of NEET PG 2020 counselling will be conducted online. Selected candidates join duties immediately after completing the admission process. 

The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has released a notification stating that the reporting phase for the second round of NEET PG counselling 2020 will be conducted in offline mode only. MCC emphasised on the requirement of doctors for the management of COVID-19 patients. Therefore, it is essential that the selected candidates join their duties at the earliest.

Seat allotment list for the second round of counselling will be released on June 14. The reporting phase of NEET PG 2020 counselling will begin from June 16. Candidates who will be allotted a seat in the second round of NEET PG counselling 2020 will have to report to the respective medical college along with all their documents. Candidates living in areas where the movement has been restricted due to lockdown can produce the allotment letter to the authorities along with a copy of the DO letter from the Health Secretary, MoHFW. They do not need to apply for an e-pass separately as their ‘Allotment Letter’ will act as one.

All candidates must download the Aarogya Setu app before reporting to the institutes. They must also enquire about the quarantine rules and travel guidelines in advance.
