Seven NEET repeaters from Madurai get medical seats under 7.5 per cent quota
MADURAI: Seven NEET repeaters from the district, this year, secured seats in medical colleges under the 7.5% reservation for students who studied in government schools from Class 6 to 12. Of the seven aspirants -- all of them took up private coaching for NEET -- six got MBBS seats and one secured a seat for BDS course, during the UG medical counselling held recently. C Snega, who secured the highest marks (487/720) among the seven, gained admission to MBBS course in Madurai Medical College. She studied in Tamil medium and attempted the exam thrice. 'My school teachers guided me to study NCERT books, which helped me secure good marks,' said Snega, who aspires to become a cardiologist. R Priyanka, who scored 466/720 in NEET, secured admission to Tirunelveli medical college. Priyanka, whose father runs a tea shop, said her parents supported her despite several challenges to take up private coaching for the entrance examination. She said the free NEET training offered by the government was an eye-opener. P Udhaya Mareeswaran, who scored the third highest mark among the seven students, said, 'Last year, I got a BDS seat under the 7.5% reservation. This year, I got an MBBS seat in Thiruvarur Government Medical College. Though I studied in Tamil medium, the continuous training helped me to get the seat.' Similarly, during the UG medical counselling last year, six students secured MBBS seats and two got BDS seats under the 7.5% reservation category. However, no government school student from the district, who had only taken up the free coaching offered by the state government, secured a medical seat under the reservation category this year. District NEET coordinator for government coaching S Vennila Devi told TNIE, 'Till last year, we had been offering a 45-day intensive training for students after the end of the Class 12 examinations. However, securing high marks in NEET requires continuous training. We had suggested the same to the respective authorities, and starting this academic year, continuous, year-long training has commenced for the students of government and government-aided schools, block-wise.' She hoped the year-long free training would help students clear the examination in their first attempt and secure seats in medical colleges.

Are Indian People Rude? Viral Reddit Post By Ex-NRI Sparks Debate
Last Updated: An ex-NRI shares his unpleasant experience returning to India after 12 years in the US, highlighting rudeness in Delhi-NCR. Read his story on Reddit. If you are someone who lives abroad, then coming back to India feels like a familiar hug. But there are exceptions. And one that has caught the internet's attention comes in the form of a Reddit post. In an elaborate write-up, an Indian man has shared his unpleasant experience of returning to his own country after 12 years of living in the US. What he found the most upsetting was how 'rude" people in India were. What The Redditor Said The man began his post by saying, 'I lived in the US for more than a decade. I returned to India 3 months ago. One issue that I've always had with living in India is the rudeness one has to deal with on a day-to-day basis." The ex-NRI, living in the Delhi-NCR region, recounted two incidents that made him feel that way. He said, 'I accompanied my mother to a clinic, where she was getting her stitches removed. Everyone – from the receptionist to the attendant – was extremely rude. This is a clinic with a great reputation, and I was not expecting such unprofessionalism. I noticed the same behaviour when I went to enroll for an Aadhar card." Even the man's neighbour behaved 'aggressively" with him when asking the former expat to make security arrangements. 'Our neighbour yesterday asked us to remove the blink camera from our front door as it captures his front door as well, but he came off as quite aggressive for someone making a request to us to make a change to our security arrangement," said the man. According to the ex-NRI, individuals living in posh societies and working in 'polished offices" were the ones who had the most attitude. It came as a shock to the man, as he was used to the 'polite and friendly" cultures of small cities. He also wondered whether living in the US had made him 'softer". 'Maybe US made me realise that basic politeness should be the norm and not a luxury. I still carry a lot of habits I learned in the US – saying thank you for services and saying hi to people when meeting them for the first time – but all I get in response is a blank, weird stare. As I'm re-adjusting after 12+ years in the US, I'm re-learning to grow a thicker skin," penned the US-return individual. How Fellow Redditors Reacted Here's what Redditors said. 'Basic civic sense should be a compulsory subject," read a stern remark. 'For women, civic sense is the least of their worries. Try dealing with all the pinching, groping and grinding any and everywhere," noted another. 'Life often feels like a constant struggle in India," commented an individual. 'You are living in the Rudeness Capital of India- NCR," pointed out a user. view comments Location : Delhi, India, India First Published: News viral Are Indian People Rude?
