Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna Uttarakhand Medical Education University (HNBUMU) has suspended the Uttarakhand NEET UG Counselling 2025 Round 3 seat allotment process. This suspension is effective immediately and will continue until further notice. The decision directly follows an order issued by the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC), Government of India.
The MCC, which oversees medical admissions nationwide, released notification number U-11011/07/2025/MEC . This directive instructs all state counselling authorities to implement a critical filter. States must identify and exclude candidates who have already secured admission under the All India Quota (AIQ) seats. This exclusion applies before the commencement of Round 3 of state NEET UG counselling.
The purpose of this mandate is to prevent candidates from holding multiple medical seats simultaneously. AIQ seats are allocated through national counselling, while state quota seats are managed by individual states like Uttarakhand. Preventing dual admissions ensures fairness and opens up opportunities for more students.
MCC clarified that the Round 3 results for UG counselling 2025 have already been published. A key point from the MCC is the absence of any resignation provision in this round. This means candidates allotted a seat in AIQ Round 3 cannot surrender it to participate in state counselling, reinforcing the need for strict filtering by states.
State authorities, including HNBUMU, received clear instructions to enforce this rule. Their responsibility is to verify that no candidate already admitted through AIQ secures an additional seat within the state quota. This action supports transparency and equitable distribution of medical college seats.
The temporary hold impacts numerous students awaiting their admission status in Uttarakhand. HNBUMU confirmed that this measure aligns with national-level guidelines issued by the central medical counselling body. The university also advised all candidates to remain vigilant for further announcements regarding the revised schedule.
This intervention by the MCC aims to standardize the admission process across India. It addresses concerns about seat wastage and ensures that every available medical seat is offered to an eligible student. It mandates coordination between national and state counselling bodies.
Candidates affected by this suspension must monitor HNBUMU’s official website,hnbumu.ac.in. This is the only reliable source for official updates. HNBUMU will release information regarding the new counselling schedule, specific dates, and seat allotment results on its portal. Regular checks are essential to stay informed.
