Chennai, 13/8: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin on Monday wrote to President Droupadi Murmu seeking her consent for the legislation that seeks to do away with NEET in the state, saying each day of delay in its implementation costs not only valuable medical seat.
His letter came after a 19-year-old medical aspirant died by suicide after failing to clear NEET and his father also ended his life, unable to take the shock. The anti-NEET legislation was first passed by the Tamil Nadu assembly in September 2021.
