Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav Friday wrote to the Centre demanding reservation benefits for OBC students in state-funded central medical colleges.
In a letter to HRD Minister Prakash Javedkar, he said, "The National Eligibility Entrance Test (NEET) is held every year for admission to 25,000 MBBS seats in the country. On the basis of marks, a list is prepared and under it 85 per cent seats are kept for state medical colleges in which reservation is given to OBCs."
