NEET PG 2023: Supreme Court Dismisses Petitions To Postpone Exam

NEET PG 2023: The ASG Aishwarya Bhati told Supreme Court today that the postponement demand is only by a minority number of students.

NEET PG 2023: Supreme Court on Monday dismissed the pleas seeking postponement of the NEET-PG 2023 examination scheduled on March 5, 2023, Live Law reported. The petitioners had pointed out that the NBE, when it first issued the notification for NEET-PG 2023 on January 7, 2023, had fixed the cut-off date for internship completion as March 31, 2023. Later, on January 13, the cut-off date was extended to June 30. Again, on February 7, the cut-off date was further extended to August 11, 2023.

The petitioners contend that although the cut-off date has been extended, since the exams are to be held on the initially announced date, the newly eligible candidates do not get adequate time to prepare.

A Bench comprising Justice S. Ravindra Bhat and Justice Dipankar Datta refused to entertain the petitions filed by candidates. Last Friday, the Court had sought the response of the National Board of Examinations on the plea.

The ASG Aishwarya Bhati told Supreme Court today that the postponement demand is only by a minority number of students. “In the first window, nearly two lakh three thousand students applied. Only six thousand students applied after the internship deadline was extended,” ASG said.
