S Anitha was a petitioner in the Supreme Court against the implementation of NEET for admissions to medical courses in Tamil Nadu. But Tamil Nadu has been against its implementation, arguing that it favours CBSE students over those under state boards. Subsequently, the A-G revised his opinion, leading to the Supreme Court verdict on August 23.
