Supreme Court Adjourns NEET-UG Reform Hearing to August 19 Pending Review of Centre's AffidavitPreviousNext

The Supreme Court has adjourned the hearing on petitions seeking reforms in the NEET-UG examination process to August 19. The petitions, filed by medical associations, allege systemic failures in the National Testing Agency (NTA) and demand an independent body to conduct the exam, along with a court-monitored CBI probe into a paper leak. The Centre has filed an affidavit detailing reforms introduced by the NTA, including measures to enhance question paper security and examination protocols, which the Court will review before resuming hearings.
