Court Proceedings and Decisions

Court petitions were filed as well challenging the NEET-UG 2024 results, citing three primary concerns: The awarding of grace marks to certain students, allegations of a leaked question paper, and suspected irregularities at specific exam centers. Many called for an investigation and a re-examination. Consequently, a panel was established to review the NEET UG 2024 results. “The committee has decided to cancel the scorecards of the 1,563 NEET-UG 2024 candidates who received grace marks, and these students will have the option to take a re-test,” the NTA stated. “The exam will be conducted on June 23, and the results will be declared before June 30,” it added. Students who do not wish to re-appear for the exam will have to accept their original marks minus the grace marks.

The petitioner, who appeared for NEET-UG 2024, has raised concerns regarding the allocation of compensatory marks to 1,563 candidates. These candidates were granted compensatory marks through the normalisation formula due to not being allowed the full 3 hours and 20 minutes at their examination centres, resulting in a shorter examination time. The compensatory marks were awarded based on the recommendations of a Grievance Redressal Committee, which relied on a judgment from this Court in the case of Disha Panchal vs. Union of India and others.” The Supreme Court emphasised that it will not halt the NEET-UG 2024 counselling process.The Supreme Court will resume reviewing the other petitions apart from grace marks on July 8. The court has noted that the NTA will officially announce today the date for the re-test for the 1,563 students. However, these developments will not stall the ongoing counselling process.NTA has accepted its mistake of providing “GRACE MARKS” to the NEET-UG CANDIDATES.
