Imphal, March 29, 2014:
After it was reported that this year's AIPMT (All India Pre Medical Test) would be held on May 5 with the State Health Director as nodal officer, the same arrangement has been put on hold.
According to information received from the Directorate of Health Services, CBSE has not sent any intimation till date to start preparation for holding the AIPMT with the Health Director as nodal officer.
Notably, CBSE's earlier intimation to hold the AIPMT with the Health Director as nodal officer was reported in The Sangai Express.
Taking serious note of the abnormally large number of candidates from the State who got qualified in the National Eligibility Entrance Test (NEET) conducted by CBSE last year, some observers have suggested that the entrance test should be held with the help of experts drawn from the State Health Directorate instead of entrusting the whole responsibility to CBSE alone.
