HC rejects plea against 100% quota in PC-PNDT

1 2 Jaipur: A single judge bench of Rajasthan High Court rejected the petitions challenging complete reservation in PC-PNDT and related diploma programmes. The reservation applies exclusively to in-service doctors in Rajasthan or individuals who completed their MBBS from medical institutions within the state. A single bench of Justice Sameer Jain gave this order while hearing the petition of Anoop Agarwal and others on May 21, with the order uploaded Tuesday. "This is a policy decision of the govt, and it is also not against the provisions of the Constitution," the court said. The petitioner said that on April 22, the NEET PG Counselling Board issued an advertisement and sought applications for conducting a six-month ultrasound training course under PC-PNDT. "It was provided that in the first round, only doctors who have done MBBS from the state's medical colleges and in-service doctors will be included. If seats remain vacant after this, then in the second and subsequent rounds, those who have done MBBS from outside the state will be given a chance. We have challenged this and maintained that the National Medical Commission considers doctors who have done MBBS from anywhere in the country to be equal on the basis of merit," said Tanveer Ahamed, counsel for the petitioner. In such a situation, the petitioner cannot be discriminated against on the basis of place for admission in this course.

HC questions alleged bias in ultrasound training course admissions in Rajasthan

Jaipur: Rajasthan High Court issued notices to the secretary of medical education and the chairman of NEET PG counselling board Tuesday, questioning the alleged discrimination against doctors who completed their MBBS outside of Rajasthan for admission to the six-month ultrasound training course in Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PCPNDT). Justice Sameer Jain issued the notice after a petition was filed by Dr Supriya Gupta , who argued that the admission process unfairly prioritised doctors graduating from medical colleges in Rajasthan. Gupta's petition challenged the admission criteria. The petitioner's counsel, Tanveer Ahmed, alleged discrimination in the NEET PG Counselling Board's April 22 advertisement for the ultrasound training course under PCPNDT. The advertisement's provisions state that doctors who studied MBBS at Rajasthan medical colleges will be preferred in the first round, while 'outside' candidates will only be considered in the second and subsequent rounds.
