Several pleas filed in connection to the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET-UG) 2024 examination were listed for hearing before the Supreme Court today. While some of the prayers in the pleas concerned the issue of alleged use of unfair means in the NEET UG 2024 exam, the rest of the issues were regarding the National Testing Agency's decision of granting grace marks to 1563 candidates to compensate for their loss of time.
The Union Government and the National Testing Agency (NTA) informed the Supreme Court today that they will cancel and withdraw the results of the 1563 candidates prepared based on the compensatory marks. These affected candidates will be notified about their actual scores obtained in the NEET UG 2024 exam held on 05.05.2024 and they will be given a choice of either retaining the original marks (without the compensatory marks) or appearing in a re-exam conducted by NTA on 23rd June, 2024. Moreover, the re-exam for the affected candidates will likely be held on June 23rd and the results of those candidates who will appear in the re-exam will be published by 30th of June, 2024, so that the counselling for NEET UG 2024 can commence from July 6th, 2024.
Considering these submissions, the Apex Court bench observed, "According to the recommendations, it has been suggested that the scorecards of the affected 1563 candidates issued on June 4, 2024 will stand cancelled and withdrawn. These affected 1563 candidates will be informed of their actual scores without compensatory marks. Further, re-examination will be conducted for the affected 1563 candidates. The results of these affected candidates who do not wish to appear for the re-examination will be declared based on their actual marks without compensation obtained by them in the examination held on May 5, 2024 and the marks obtained by the candidates who will appear in the retest will be considered and their marks based on the examination held on 05.05.2024 will be discarded."
