Supreme Court to Hear PIL Challenging NEET-PG 2025 Cut-Off Revision Amid Seat Vacancy Concerns

A public interest litigation challenging the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences' decision to lower NEET-PG 2025-26 qualifying cut-offs is expected to be heard soon by the Supreme Court. Petitioners argue the cut-off reduction, including zero and negative scores, violates fairness as aspirants prepared based on original criteria. Officials state the revision aims to fill over 18,000 vacant postgraduate seats nationwide, ensuring better utilization of medical education resources and addressing specialist shortages.
