NEET SS 2025: Doctors Urge J P Nadda to Hold Additional Counselling Round to Fill 1,700 Vacant Seats

Highlighting that around 1700 super-speciality seats are still lying vacant, doctors have urged the Union Health Minister Shri J P Nadda to conduct an additional round (Round 3) of the NEET SS 2025 counselling to ensure optimum utilisation of the unfilled seats.

Submitting a representation to the Union Health Minister, the doctors under the Indian Medical Association Junior Doctors Network (IMA-JDN) have argued that leaving these super-speciality seats vacant would result in the loss of valuable training opportunities for the current academic session. It would also result in a shortage of trained Super-Specialists in the country, they pointed out.
