IMPHAL, Nov 30 : A team at COMET today felicitated 186 students from its school at Changangei Ucheckon and its coaching centre at Keishampat who cleared the NEET-UG Examination 2025.
Of the total, 156 students belong to the COMET Coaching Centre at Keishampat, while 30 are from COMET School at Changangei Ucheckon.
The students were honoured with gifts during a felicitation ceremony held at Hotel Classic Grande, Chingmeirong.
Addressing the function as chief guest, Additional Secretary (Home) cum Director of Institutional Finance  Ahanthem Subhash lauded COMET for its remarkable contribution in producing medical aspirants year after year.
He particularly appreciated the teachers and management of COMET in guiding the students.
Saying that NEET-UG is one of the toughest competitive examinations in the country, he urged the students who have secured MBBS seats to work even harder during their medical studies to become competent doctors and serve the people.
In his address, Managing Director of COMET Irom Umakanta said that the number of students who cleared NEET-UG this year is lower compared to previous years, primarily due to the ongoing crisis in Manipur.
He said that they will intensify examination-oriented teaching and introduce a series of tests modelled exactly on the NEET-UG pattern at COMET Coaching Centre to better  prepare future aspirants.
He also said that COMET is extending special support to internally displaced students by providing them free education.
COMET has produced 2,059 medical students since 2004 with many now serving across the country and beyond, he said. The programme was also attended by Principal of Standard College, Kongba Dr Mairembam Suresh and Principal of  COMET School Thoudam Debchandra among others.
