On Tuesday, September 14, Tamil Nadu Health Minister M Subramaniam said that over 1 lakh students from the state have taken the NEET exams this year. To ensure 'social fairness,' the Tamil Nadu Assembly also passed a bill scrapping the National Entrance-cum-Eligibility Test (NEET) and allowing admission to medical schools based on Class XII grades.
