IIT placement slump: Government data indicates that more than half of institutes have seen a 10% reduction from 2021–2022.

A more thorough explanation of what the data indicates is provided below: Decline in Enrollment: A decrease in school and college enrollments is mentioned in a number of sources; some attribute this to the removal of duplicate enrollments, inflated statistics, increased tuition fees, and a lack of financial help. Placements loss: A number of reports also point to a reduction in IIT placement rates, with IIT-Delhi reporting a notable 17 percentage point loss in placements. Funding Reduction: There is proof that several education programs, such as the one for minorities and madrasas, are receiving less money, with allocations being significantly cut. Contributing Factors to Decline: Rising tuition prices, a lack of financial help, job market competitiveness, and a bad reputation for the school are some potential causes of the fall. Particular Examples: From 174 crores in 2021–2022 to just 2 crores in 2024–2025, the education program for Madrasas and Minorities suffered a decrease in funding. Placements at IIT-Delhi fell from 89.88% in 2022–2023 to 72.81% in 2023–2024.

The Supreme Court maintains that NEET UG is a recognized qualification for pursuing medical education overseas.
According to this verdict, Indian students who wish to pursue medical studies overseas must henceforth meet NEET UG requirements in order to be admitted to international medical schools.The Medical Council of India's rule requiring students to pass the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) in order to enroll in undergraduate medical programs at overseas universities was upheld by the Supreme Court on Wednesday. This law, which was put into effect in 2018, makes sure that Indian students pursuing medical studies overseas fulfill the requirements needed to practice medicine in India.According to the court's decision, the rule is transparent, equitable, and compliant with all applicable laws. Completing the eligibility requirements outlined in the Graduate Medical Education Regulations, 1997, is a prerequisite for passing the NEET UG. The petition was considered by a Supreme Court bench consisting of Justices B R Gavai and K Vinod Chandran. The petitioners had contested the rule, claiming that the Indian Medical Council Act of 1956 had not been changed in its introduction. Nonetheless, the court determined that Section 33 of the Act gave the Medical Council the authority to enact the regulation."Obviously, with open eyes, if any candidate chooses to enroll in a foreign institution to pursue a course leading to a primary medical qualification after the amended regulations went into effect, they cannot request an exemption from the regulations, which establish crucial eligibility requirements for practicing medicine within the nation." The panel stated that this does not limit their ability to practice anyplace outside of India.
