Students call for the postponement of NEET PG 2022

Some say the exam date clashes with the counselling process
A segment of students from different parts of the country have demanded the postponement of the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance test (NEET) for PG medical programmes scheduled for March 12 (PG 2022).
The students want the test to be delayed by a couple of months to accommodate medical graduates, who had started their internship late. Also, if they get a seat, the exam date and the date of reporting in colleges would clash, leaving them with little choice.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, NEET PG 2021 was postponed twice last year. Normally the test is held by December 31 and the cut-off date for eligibility is March 31 of the same year.

Over the decades, the Anglo-Indian Grand Christmas Ball in Chennai has stepped into many venues, from Railway enclaves to private halls. It has left an indelible mark on some of these venues, Faiz Mahal and Shiraz Hall, both in Egmore, counted among them. This Christmas Day (December 25), Faiz Mahal is playing host to yet another Grand Christmas Ball. The soiree is organised by Anglo-Indians but by no means restricted to them. In these times of dwindling Anglo-Indian presence even in enclaves with a distinctive Anglo-Indian flavour, this event signifies an effort to preserve a cultural tradition that has enriched Chennai
