On the reduction in the NEET PG 2025 qualifying percentile, the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) filed an affidavit before the Supreme Court of India explaining that it had no role in deciding to lower the cut-off.
In a counter-affidavit filed before the top court, NBEMS clarified that the decision to reduce the qualifying percentile was taken by the Directorate General of Health Services under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and the National Medical Commission (NMC). The examination body said its responsibility is limited to conducting the NEET-PG exam, preparing the results, and handing them over to the counselling authority.
