Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has postponed the choice filling for Round-2 of NEET SS Counselling 2025 till further orders. The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Super Specialty (NEET-SS) is the entrance examination conducted for admission to super-specialty medical courses such as DM and MCh, and the counselling process is managed by the Medical Counselling Committee.
According to MCC, the extension has been necessitated due to a matter pending before the Supreme Court in the case of Tamilvani & Ors. vs State of Tamil Nadu. The issue under consideration relates to the status of “in-service seats” in Tamil Nadu and whether these seats should continue under the state in-service quota or be reverted to the All India Quota pool.
“It is for the information to all candidates participating in Round-2 of SS Counselling 2025 that the Choice Filling for Round 2 of NEET SS Counselling 2025 has been extended till further orders due to pending decision in the matter of Tamilvani & Ors. vs State of Tamil Nadu (W.P No. 415 of 2026) in the Hon’ble Supreme Court regarding reversion of in-service seats of Tamil Nadu to All India Quota pool. Candidates are advised to stay in touch with MCC website (www.mcc.nic.in) for further updates regarding schedule of NEET SS Counselling 2025,” reads the official notice.
Following this, aspirants have taken to X to demand accountability and a clearly defined counselling schedule. The FAIMA Doctors Association has stated that the delay in the second round of NEET SS 2025 counselling, caused by this administrative deadlock, has forced thousands of super-specialty doctors into involuntary unemployment, pushing them into unprecedented mental and financial distress, and has questioned why the careers of India’s top specialists remain on standby.
