NEET PG 2025: 3 New Exam Centres Added in JnK
Jammu & Kashmir- The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has recently released the tentative list of exam cities for the National Eligibility and Entrance Test-Postgraduate (NEET PG) exam for the academic year 2025. In this, three more new NEET-PG exam centres have been added in Jammu and Kashmir.
The three new NEET-PG exam centres include Baramulla, Budgam and Pulwama of J&K. These 3 new centres are now among the new centre options in addition to the already existing Samba, Jammu and Srinagar centres.
The move comes after aspirants from Jammu and Kashmir urged authorities to set up additional exam centres in Srinagar and Jammu for NEET PG-2025. They had said that nearly 90 per cent of the candidates were allotted centres in Jammu while only a few have got centres in Srinagar, reports Rising Kashmir.
Last year, around 2,800 candidates appeared for the NEET PG exam. Whereas, this year the number has increased to 4,000 and is expected to reach 5,000 by 2026. Despite this increase, the number of exam centres in Jammu and Kashmir remains limited.
Medical Dialogues recently reported that the NBE has increased the number of exam cities, following the Supreme Court's direction to the exam conducting body to conduct the exam in a single shift. The exam is scheduled to be held on August 3 in computer-based mode.
Now, as per the revised list of exam cities released by NBE, the NEET PG 2025 exam will be conducted in a total of 233 exam cities. Earlier, as per the NEET PG exam 2025 information bulletin, the exam was to be conducted in a total of 179 cities.
