Minimum of three years of permanent service mandatory for being considered as in service NEET PG candidates, reiterates Bombay HC
Overview
Stating that temporary service cannot be counted while determining the eligibility of a medical officer to appear as an in-service candidate in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET-PG) admissions, the Bombay High Court recently reiterated that a minimum of three years of permanent service is mandatory for being considered as in-service NEET-PG candidates.
Referring to the provisions of government resolution (GR) on ‘Regulation For Selection of In-Service Medical Officers from the cadre of Maharashtra Medical and Health Services Group - A for Post Graduate Degree and Diploma Courses', the Aurangabad bench of HC noted, "Unlike clause 5.2 which admits of even a temporary tenure to be counted for allotment of grace marks, clause 4.2 expressly lays down that for counting the minimum service of 3 years as the eligibility criterion, the service rendered on temporary basis will not be counted."
This observation was made by the HC bench of Justice Mangesh S Patil and Justice SG Chapalgaonkar while considering a plea filed by a doctor seeking in-service candidate status for the NEET PG 2023 examination.
