Refusing to accept the plea seeking a Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode for the NEET UG 2026 re-test on June 21 instead of its existing pen and paper mode, the Supreme Court of India observed similar requests had already been dismissed and said there was no justification for changing the examination format at a stage when authorities are already dealing with the challenges of reconducting the exam.

A division bench comprising Justice P.S. Narasimha and Justice Aravind Kumar made the observation on May 1, 2026 while hearing a writ petition filed by RJD MP Sudhakar Singh, social activist Anubhav Garg, Dr Dhruv Chauhan, National Spokesperson of the Indian Medical Association (IMA), and political leader Harisharan Devgan through advocate Satyam Singh Rajput, advocate-on-Record Neema, along with a legal team comprising Muskan Singh and Adarsh Singh.
