Allows NBE to hold NEET-PG exam on Aug 3

 

 

THE Supreme Court on Friday allowed the National Board of Examination (NBE) to conduct on August 3, the NEET-PG 2025 exam in one shift in line with the top court’s directions. A bench of Justices Prashant Kumar Mishra and Augustine George Masih, which initially questioned the over two-month window sought by the NBE for holding the examination, said the board’s plea appeared to be “bonafide”. The top court, however, clarified no further time would be granted to NBE for holding NEET-PG 2025 examination.

 

The NBE referred to the May 30 order of the top court and said for holding the simultaneous examinations all over in one shift required about 1,000 examination centres. The plea said it would hold the examination, scheduled on June 15 between 9 am and 12.30 pm on August 3, which was the earliest possible date given by their technology partner Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (TCS).
