After MP, Madras HC rejects plea for NEET 2025 re-exam
After the Madhya Pradesh High Court, now a Division bench of the Madras High Court has dismissed a plea seeking re-examination of the National Eligibility-Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET-UG) 2025.

Who's a real doctor? Vidit Gujrathi, Liver Doc clash over Doctor's Day post
Indian Chess Grandmaster Vidit Gujrathi has landed in a social media controversy after his Doctor’s Day tribute to his family drew sharp criticism from Dr. Cyriac Abby Philips, known online as the "Liver Doc."
The controversy began when Gujrathi shared a selfie with his family on Doctor’s Day, captioning it- “Happy Doctor’s Day to my entire family.” In response to a user’s query about their medical backgrounds, Gujrathi mentioned that his father is an Ayurvedic migraine specialist, his wife has an MD in homoeopathy, his mother practices cosmetology, and his sister is a physiotherapist.
However, the post quickly took a contentious turn when Dr. Philips responded sharply, “I’m sorry, but none of them are really doctors,” effectively rejecting the recognition of Ayurveda, homeopathy, and cosmetology as legitimate forms of medical science. The comment ignited widespread backlash, particularly from supporters of traditional and alternative medicine.

AIIMS Delhi Challenges HC order on pregnancy of minor rape survivor
The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) on Thursday approached the Delhi High Court against an order allowing a 27-week pregnant minor rape survivor to terminate pregnancy.
A high court single judge on June 30 ordered AIIMS to terminate the 16-year-old girl's pregnancy.
According to the PTI news report, AIIMS, before a bench of Chief Justice D K Upadhyaya and Justice Anish Dayal, argued that terminating her pregnancy would hamper her future reproductive health.
The bench asked the mother of the minor girl and the chairperson or a member of the medical board to remain present at around 2.30 pm when hearing would continue.
The court also remarked that "advising a rape victim to prolong her pregnancy will entail anxiety" which could have a grave impact on her mental health.
Additional Solicitor General Aishwarya Bhati, representing AIIMS, said the medical board opined that the girl's health needed to be protected.
