Mumbai: TNN


Medical aspirants can appear for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) in eight languages, including English and Marathi, for admission in the coming year. The decision was recently taken by the Union health ministry on the directive of the Supreme Court. Though the CBSE is yet to release an official notice announcing the move, students have welcomed it.About 1,670 medical aspirants took the state's common entrance test (CET) in Marathi this year. A similar number of students will benefit in the state once NEET is conducted in Marathi.
 NEET was re-implemented after three years in 2016 after an SC order revived it. About 7.5 lakh students took the exam in phase-I and phase-II. While state government colleges were exempted from using NEET scores this year, it will be the only test conducted for medical admissions for all colleges, including, government, private and deemed in 2017.
