NEET PG Hearing 2024 Highlights: The Supreme Court on Friday dismissed a plea seeking postponement of the NEET-PG examination, scheduled for August 11, which claimed that candidates have been allocated cities that are highly inconvenient to reach. A bench of CJI DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala, and Manoj Misra refused to entertain the petition seeking postponement of the NEET-PG 2024 examination.
The plea said many candidates have been allocated cities that are highly inconvenient for them to reach. It said the test cities were allotted on July 31, and the specific centres will be declared on August 8. While the allocation of the centres was done to curb malpractices, the plea said due to the paucity of time, it is difficult for the candidates to make arrangements for travel to specific cities.
