To prevent ‘mischief’, medical staff are not allowed to take leave during NEET

In an advisory issued on Thursday, the NMC asked institutions to remain vigilant and reminded students not to engage in any activities that may affect the conduct of examinations.The move comes on the instructions of the Ministry of Education’s Higher Education Department, which pointed out past instances where medical students were found to be involved in activities that could undermine the sanctity of the examination process.
