The Tamil Nadu government told the state Assembly that it is opposed to the National Exit Test (NEXT) for MBBS students.
About:
A provision in the National Medical Commission (NMC) Bill proposes a common final-year MBBS exam, to be known as National Exit Test (NEXT), for admission to post-graduate medical courses.
Arguments by political parties from Tamil Nadu:
They favoured NEXT only for candidates who completed their undergraduate medical courses in foreign countries. They also argued that some of the provisions of the NMC Bill were against the principles of federalism and the States’ rights.
The provision of exempting students of medical institutions of national importance from the purview of NEXT was undermining the excellence of Madras Medical College and Stanley Medical College in Chennai.
