Hyderabad/New Delhi: The Telangana state government announced on Friday that it would conduct a fresh Eamcet for filling medical and dental seats hours after the Centre, under pressure from several states, agreed to promulgate an ordinance to keep state boards out of the ambit of the Neet for this year.

The AP government will release the medical stream results of the Eamcet conducted on April 29, at 11 am on Saturday. Results for other streams had been released on May 13.

The ordinance, cleared by the Union Cabinet on Friday morning, is aimed at “partially” overturning a Supreme Court verdict which said all government colleges, deemed universities and private medical colleges would be covered under Neet. This was the only agenda for the Cabinet meeting, sources said. The next phase of the exam is scheduled for July 24.
