Chennai: The Madras high court faulted the state government for misleading students in connection with Neet and restrained ministers from making any remarks regarding Neet.
When a petition seeking setting up of counselling centres for students seeking admission into medical courses came up for hearing before Justice N. Kirubakaran, the additional advocate general informed the court that steps have been taken to establish such centres for students in the state. Rejecting the reply, Justice N. Kirubakaran stated that the order was passed on October 24 and nearly one month had passed, yet nothing had been done. “Due to the delay, we have already lost a girl, he said. You have deceived people, giving false promises of getting permanent exemption from Neet. Do not mislead students. If you are taking steps towards permanent exemption, announce this only after succeeding in your effort. Till then, ask your ministers not to make announcements in the media stating that we will get exemption soon.”
