NEET PG 2023: Cut-off date for MBBS internship extended till 30 June, details here

The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET PG) 2023 internship cut-off date has been extended to 30 June by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW). This development has been notified by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS). Earlier, the cut-off date for the candidates to complete the compulsory one-year internship was 31 March 2023. MoHFW was urged by the Indian Medical Association, student union bodies, several state authorities, and prospective candidates for extending the date. The deadline of 31 March was also opposed by the Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA).

FORDA had said that the present decision has far-reaching consequences and that it has left many students facing a bleak future. In a letter, FORDA had told the Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya, “This unfortunate decision has rendered a majority of current interns across the country ineligible thereby wiping out competition and leaving a multitude of others in a state of uncertainty.”
