The NEET PG Counselling for 2024 is set to commence on November 11, 2024, as confirmed by the Federation of Resident Doctors’ Associations (FORDA). This announcement comes after a significant delay in the counselling process, which has raised concerns about the timeline for future admissions, particularly for 2025. FORDA expressed their frustration over the ongoing delays, stating that this marks the third consecutive year of such issues, complicating the admission cycle for medical graduates.
