Chennai:23.08.2019

Admissions to Ayush courses, barring Yoga and Naturotherapy, will be NEET-based for the current academic year, officials from the Commissionarate of Indian Medicine said on Thursday. Applications for the course, like MBBS/BDS, will be available online and counselling will be conducted face-to-face, they said.

The merit list of the Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences (BYNS) course has been published by the selection committee of Indian Medicine on http://www.tnhealth.org/ and the counselling for the course will be held for two days from August 28.

The dates for counselling of ayurveda, siddha, unnai and homeopathy will be announced after the selection committee received the government order, the officials said.

Until June, health minister C Vijayabaskar maintained that representations were sent to the Central Council of Indian Medicine, the apex body which monitors and regulates traditional medical education and practices in the country, to exempt the state from NEET.

Meanwhile, as per the BYNS merit list, the first rank went to Jeya Kayathri S who had scored 194.50 marks in Class XII. While Pavithra A stood second with 194.25 marks, Ramya V was placed third with 193.50 marks. While top nine candidates had scored above 190 marks, students ranked between 10 and 74 had marks above 180.
