Maharashtra flags 152 medical aspirants: How seat-blocking and fudged documents distort MBBS admissions

Maharashtra’s CET Cell has launched a strict verification drive after uncovering discrepancies in documents submitted for NEET-UG 2025 Round-3 admissions. Following a TNN investigation that revealed candidates holding seats elsewhere reappearing in the state merit list, 152 students have been asked to re-upload original documents by October 16. The move aims to curb seat-blocking and restore credibility in medical admissions.
