Kerala NEET PG 2025 Bond Policy

In a significant policy update, CEE Kerala has implemented stricter service bond rules for NEET PG candidates:

• Candidates who discontinue their postgraduate medical course after admission will be required to pay back all government expenses incurred during their training, plus a penalty of ₹50 lakh.
• Students must execute two service bonds on stamp paper worth ₹200 at the time of joining their allotted course.

This move aims to curb mid-course dropouts and ensure that government-funded medical seats are optimally utilized.
