NEET-UG Row | Court On NEET-UG Row

 Sanctity Of Exam Affected... Need Answers": Supreme Court On NEET-UG Row

The court was hearing a fresh petition in the ongoing row over the NEET-UG 2024 results that claim discrepancies in scores and alleged preferential treatment to some students.

New Delhi: -

The Supreme Court on Tuesday issued notice to the centre and NTA, or National Testing Agency, over a petition seeking to cancel results of the NEET-UG 2024 - an ultra-competitive entrance test for undergraduate medical courses - amid allegations the paper was leaked. 

"It is not that simple... that because you have done it (held the exam) it is sacrosanct," the court told the NTA, "Sanctity of (the examination) has been affected... so we need answers." 


The court, though, said counselling for admissions will continue. Justices Vikram Nath and Ahsanuddin Amanullah said, "We are not stopping counselling". The matter was then posted to July 8 and will be heard with a plea filed before Chief Justice DY Chandrachud.

The court was hearing a fresh petition in the ongoing row over the NEET-UG 2024 results that claim discrepancies in scores and alleged preferential treatment to some students.


The petition asked for the scores from the May 5 exam to be cancelled


The petition also asked for a fresh exam to be held.


The petitioners - from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh - have claimed variances in grant of grace marks, for which they say there is "no defined logic", and drawn the court's attention to "statistically impossible" marks, including students scoring the maximum - 720 of 720.

Underscoring the dangers of cheating in a medical test, the plea said, "This field requires a deep understanding of scientific and medical knowledge... cheating or using unfair means to pass an exam can lead to a lack of competence and endanger lives of patients."


The petitioners also noted that cheating in exams "undermines the principles of meritocracy and equal opportunities, which are essential for social mobility and fairness in society".
