Supreme Court directs NEET-PG 2025 exam to be conducted in one shift

SC directed that National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test-Post Graduate 2025 examination, which is scheduled on June 15, be conducted in a single shift instead of two shifts

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday directed that the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test-Post Graduate (NEET-PG) 2025 examination, which is scheduled on June 15, be conducted in a single shift instead of two shifts.

A bench headed by Justice Vikram Nath directed the authorities concerned to make arrangements for holding the exam in one shift and to ensure that complete transparency is maintained.

The bench, also comprising Justices Sanjay Kumar and N V Anjaria, said holding the examination in two shifts creates “arbitrariness”. “Any two question papers can never be said to be having an identical level of difficulty or ease,” the top court said.

The bench passed the order while hearing a plea challenging a notification on holding the NEET-PG 2025 examination in two shifts.
