Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that MDS aspirants had approached the Supreme Court seeking postponement of the exam and an extension of the deadline to complete the BDS internship. However, the NEET MDS 2024 exam did not get rescheduled, issuing a notice in this regard, the National Board of Examinations (NBE) confirmed that the exam would be conducted on its scheduled date i.e. on 18th March 2024. Meanwhile, based on the directions issued by the Union Health Ministry, NBEMS extended the deadline for completion of the BDS internship till 30th June 2024.
The result is scheduled to be released on 18th April 2024.
