The students falling in the Open Merit (OM) category said that the BOPEE authorities left their career in jeopardy by changing the seat matrix wherein seats from the OM category were allotted to students in the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) category.

“It is complete injustice to us. The BOPEE should have adopted some other method to adjust the candidates from EWS,” said Farhan, an aggrieved candidate.

The OM category students on Thursday also staged a protest at Srinagar’s press enclave over the change in seat matrix by BOPEE.

The BOPEE authorities on Monday issued the revised seat matrix of NEET-UG, 2021, and ordered the withdrawal of the previous tentative seat matrix issued on February 1, 2022.

The aggrieved NEET aspirants said that the changes in seats had cost dearly to the OM candidates as only one-third of seats had been left available for OM candidates.

“Only 35 percent seats are allotted to OM category and 65 percent seats are reserved for different categories,” an aspirant said.

The candidates demanded that BOPEE should roll back the new seat matrix and seats to GMC Srinagar should be allotted as per the previous seat matrix.
