MPLEMENTATION OF NEET - EMERGING CHALLENGES - Our Medical education is one of the most complicated system, In the past Government thought they cannot invest much in medical education and allowed many medical dental and nursing colleges, In the last two decades there is abrupt rise of Medical institutions, The government thought all is well as everyone has their own share, the Medical Council of India as a regulatory authority made rules, mended the rules made many rich through MCI inspectors I have seen many act as custodians of law and impossible regulations and made their buck to share with high ups with accepting all the lacunae in the system, The strict regulations made the corruption bigger, many preferred to initiate colleges in rural areas, where there are few people living lead to shortage of beds and turned to be a failed clinical learning, Many colleges have few patients for the University examination, However many private colleges improved and doing fine when the greediness was little and invested much in development of infrastructure and facilities to attract the poor people admitted, who alone allowed the students to examine and learn better of clinical medicine
Many Medical colleges heading to crisis
1 With growing costs it is certainly not possible to pay even the agreed salaries, leave developing infrastructure, the parents demanding least fees even in private medical colleges, it will certainly to lead to closure of some medical colleges recently initiated for profit purpose 
2 Difficult to bring in accountability of the senior teachers, and retired teachers many enjoyed unlimited leave, higher salaries, just coming 2 or 3 day, long weekends and only interested to be the Principals, vice principals and HOD’s it makes them to rule the system as they liked, It is certainly difficult to implement the Biometry many threaten the system, and then how to run the system a great question to many upcoming medical colleges, 
3 With ranking of NEET as criteria for admission a common students attained much rights, to question the system and many administrations and represent the matters to the higher authorities to fight for their rights 
4 Certainly there will much unrest from Nursing, technical, paramedical staff, for higher salaries comparing with few teachers and clinicians enjoying the boot without contributing anything, as we see many senior professors hardly interested to do anything as they are wanted by the Medical council of India as a mandatory requirements,
5 Laboratory medicine is in poor shape, least money is invested as laboratories are no more cheap to run, and buying the machines is too expensive to invest unless it can produce the returns, above all many Microbiology Pathology and Biochemistry professors run the laboratories with many remote controls and power and not even contribute a little, to improve the system most of the time happy to glued to chairs, leaving to technicians, and even the juniors try to imitate the bosses, as everyone has a reason to avoid work as management's never bothered to correct the system except the financial concerns, If you want to run the system with responsibility soon you are opposed by many it is unfortunate many professors think their presence is divine , rest to known to all who work in the system.
6 Power Brokers - Many colleges have a middle men even our teachers act high with the support of the management's loot / break the system and harass the innocent and sincere as the managements cannot handle the administration, With implementation NEET we moved from one extreme to another with lack of much money hitting the system
TIME to WATCH NEET WHAT NEXT ?
TRULY MONEY IS NEED OF THE HOUR WHO PAYS TO RUN THE PRIVATE MEDICAL COLLEGES ?
