The circumstances were handled by the unique bench led by Justice DY Chandrachud and Justice AS Bopanna, who resolved the issue by providing the 27% OBC quota and 10% EWS quota, which is yet to be finalised on the third week of March 2022.

Due to the protest, where a vast number of doctor’s from the hospital came forward, the apex court came to their decision. For 2021-2022, families whose income is less than 8 lakh per year come under the EWS category and are eligible to participate in the NEET UG & PG.

Head of career Counselling at Allen Career Institute, Kota, Parijat Mishra, said, “The Supreme court’s decision is a great decision and a well-thought solution. But, the concern is about the general category seats because of the EWS and OBC seats; general category seats will not suffer.

Many premier institutes have introduced supernumerary seats to increase the seats and introduce reservations. Medical colleges will have to follow suit.”
