The National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) PG 2025 has been postponed after the Supreme Court has directed the National Board of Examination to hold the exam in a single shift. The decision has been made to ensure complete transparency in the exam.

Many candidates had earlier raised concerns about the continued use of the two-shift exam format in NEET PG. They were calling for a return to the traditional single-shift model, citing worries about uneven question paper difficulty and the fairness of the score normalisation process.

A plea was filed in the Supreme Court challenging the conduct of the NEET-PG exam in two shifts, argues that it could lead to unfairness due to varying difficulty levels between shifts. It sought a directive for the NBE to hold the exam in a single shift to ensure a “just, fair, reasonable, and equitable” competition for all candidates.

The exam was slated to held on June 15 but now stands deferred. The revised date will be notified shortly, the NBE has stated. The board has added it would arrange more test centres and required infrastructure to conduct the exam smoothly.
