Supreme Court directs NEET PG 2025 exam to be held in a single shift nationwide, rejecting two-shift proposal to ensure fairness and uniformity across all candi
The Supreme Court of India has issued a significant directive regarding the NEET PG 2025 examination, mandating that the exam must be conducted in a single session across the country. This order came during the hearing of a petition filed by the United Doctors Front, which challenged the National Board of Examination’s (NBE) decision to hold the exam in two shifts. The court emphasized that conducting the exam in multiple shifts could lead to unfair advantages and varying levels of difficulty for candidates. NEET PG 2025 is scheduled for June 15, and the court has explicitly instructed the NBE to organize the exam in only one shift to maintain uniformity and fairness.
The petition by United Doctors Front highlighted concerns over the potential discrepancies and logistical challenges that could arise from a two-shift exam system. The Supreme Court took note of these issues and issued a notice to the NBE during earlier hearings, seeking their response. After reviewing the submissions, the court concluded that a single-shift exam is necessary to avoid confusion, discrepancies, and the possibility of malpractice. The order reinforces the principle of equal opportunity for all candidates appearing for one of the country’s most competitive medical entrance exams.
The decision by the Supreme Court brings clarity and relief to aspirants preparing for NEET PG 2025, ensuring that every candidate will face the exam under identical conditions. The NBE must now comply with the court’s instructions and make the necessary arrangements to hold the exam in one session nationwide on the designated date. This judgment aims to uphold fairness in the examination process, preventing any potential issues stemming from the administration of multiple exam shifts.
