Hi Mr. @arunraajkg
How does it feel to adopt the RSS style of information dissemination with cherry-picking facts while withholding the complete truth?
You claim that 119 Tamil Nadu Super Speciality seats were surrendered to the All India Quota for NEET-SS 2023 counselling (conducted in 2024). But you fail to mention when they were surrendered !
Because the question of significance is
"when were those seats surrendered?"
Here's the documented sequence of events:
1. NEET-SS 2023 results were declared with a 50th percentile qualifying criterion.
2. Round I
AIQ: 8–14 November 2023
Tamil Nadu In-service: November 21–23, 2023
Both rounds were conducted with the 50th percentile eligibility.
3. 8 December 2023 : The Ministry of Health & Family Welfare decided to reduce the qualifying percentile from 50th to 20th.
4. Round II – Tamil Nadu In-service December 14–16, 2023.
Instead of immediately surrendering vacant seats, Tamil Nadu first conducted another round (Round 2) for its in-service doctors using the reduced 20th percentile.
Only after completing this round were the remaining vacant seats surrendered to the AIQ Round 2.
5. AIQ Round 2 : December 18–22, 2023.
The surrendered seats were then included in AIQ Round 2, which was conducted at the 20th percentile.
6. 20 January 2024 The Ministry further expanded eligibility by permitting " ALL " NEET-SS 2023 candidates to participate in the Special Round.
7. Tamil Nadu In-service Special Round January 29 - February 3, 2024.
Once again, Tamil Nadu first exhausted every opportunity to fill seats through its own in-service counselling.
Only after the Special Round concluded were the remaining unfilled seats surrendered to the AIQ Special Round.
8. AIQ Special Round : February 5–8, 2024.
So, even if one were to accept your figure of 119 seats for the sake of argument, those seats were not surrendered before giving Tamil Nadu's in-service doctors the benefit of the reduced qualifying percentile of 20% and 0 percentile.
Tamil Nadu first retained those seats, conducted Round II after the reduction to the 20th percentile, and later with the seats returned to Tamil Nadu after AIQ round 2 conducted a State Special Round after eligibility was expanded further.
Only the seats that still remained vacant were surrendered to the AIQ Special Round.
That was the policy priority of @arivalayam , to maximise opportunities for Tamil Nadu's in-service doctors, who form the backbone of the State's public healthcare system.
Contrast that with your government's policy. By your own admission, only 50% of the seats will now be reverted to the State if the qualifying percentile is reduced.
So the obvious question is:
How is reducing Tamil Nadu's opportunity to retain and fill Super Speciality seats for its own in-service doctors being projected as a "great success"?
If the harassment of students at the hands of the police continues, the Cockroach Janta Party will respond with a massive peaceful protest soon.
The Govt must stop targeting and witch-hunting students.
Dear @JPNadda@DrJitendraSingh ji,
We are observing a complete breach of the agreement regarding no police action against the protestors. Hundreds of students have been arrested in Bihar and Bengal, and hundreds are being surveilled/harrassed in Delhi and other states. Multiple reports are emerging in Delhi around detention of volunteers supporting protestors with logistics.
We demand that all the FIRs against the protestors be immediately withdrawn, students be released and no future FIRs be filed (in line with our agreement) by Delhi police / Central investigative agencies / Police in BJP-allied states, FAILING WHICH WE WILL BE FORCED TO SIT ON PROTEST AGAIN.
We also demand that the written agreement around legal cases be shared with us by tomorrow, the aligned timelines with the Government of India.
🚨STATEMENT
We are deeply concerned by multiple reports reaching us of students and other protestors being targeted, detained, or arrested by various state agencies, particularly in Assam, West Bengal, and Bihar.
The Cockroach Janta Party had called off its nationwide protest only after the Government of India assured us that no punitive action would be taken against any protestor, either now or in the future, in any BJP-ruled or NDA-ruled states. The reports emerging from these states are therefore a matter of grave concern.
First, we wish to assure every protestor that our legal team is already coordinating with brilliant lawyers in the concerned states to secure the release of those detained and to extend all possible legal assistance. This has been happening from Day 1.
Second, we call upon the Government of India, particularly @JPNadda ji and @DrJitendraSingh ji, to immediately honour the assurance given to us by ensuring the release of those detained and by directing that no coercive or retaliatory action is taken against any protestor anywhere in the country. The FIRs registered ought to be withdrawn too.
The Government of India is also reminded of its commitment to furnish us the written guarantee in this regard by tomorrow, Tuesday, 28 July 2026.
Our decision to suspend the nationwide protest was taken in good faith and solely on the basis of the government’s assurance that it would stand by its word. Any departure from that assurance would not merely amount to a breach of trust with the Cockroach Janta Party but would also be a breach of public trust with lakhs of young Indians who chose dialogue over protests.
Such breach of trust will be completely unacceptable to the youth.
The Government of India is reminded that it derives credibility not from just making a promise, but from the promises they honour.
To the young protestors we say, hold on. We are with you. The CJP continues to closely monitor the situation and expects the Government of India and all BJP/NDA state governments to act with utmost urgency, responsibility, and good faith that the present circumstances demand. We demand that all detainees/arrestees be released immediately, and in any case by tomorrow, and that all FIRs be withdrawn immediately, failing which we shall take further necessary steps.
