Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh witnessed a significant outcome in the second round of Ayush Department NEET UG counselling, with nearly 70% of seats remaining vacant. The third round of counselling is slated to commence on Wednesday, as per the Ayush colleges. A major factor contributing to the low response rate is the suspension of recognition for 12 Ayurveda colleges.
This decision has prompted some of the affected colleges to seek legal recourse in the High Court, challenging the National Commission for Indian System of Medicine's (NCISM) decision. The registration for the third round of counselling opens on October 14 and extends until October 16. Document verification is scheduled between October 15 and October 17, while choice filling will take place from October 28 to October 30.
Seat allocation is expected to be announced on November 3, followed by temporary admission granting from November 4 to November 11. Dr Rakesh Pandey, the national spokesman of Ayush Doctors Association, expressed hope that more students would participate in the subsequent rounds of counselling, despite the current vacancy levels.
