The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Postgraduate (NEET PG) 2025, initially slated for June 15, has been postponed by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences ( NBEMS ). This decision follows a directive from the Supreme Court of India , emphasising the need for a single-shift examination to ensure fairness and transparency.
In response to concerns about potential disparities in difficulty levels between different exam shifts, the Supreme Court mandated that NEET PG 2025 be conducted in a single shift. The Court criticised the two-shift format as arbitrary and unfair, highlighting that normalisation processes cannot guarantee absolute fairness. The directive aims to provide all candidates with an equal opportunity under uniform conditions.
Logistical challenges for single shift examTransitioning to a single-shift examination presents significant logistical hurdles for NBEMS. Conducting the exam in one session requires the identification and preparation of approximately 900 additional test centres nationwide. This expansion necessitates enhanced security measures, including the deployment of signal jammers and advanced surveillance systems.
To maintain the integrity of the examination process, NBEMS requires more time to arrange for the test centres.
NEET PG 2025 revised schedule awaitedGiven the extensive preparations required to implement the Supreme Court's directive, NBEMS has postponed NEET PG 2025 until further notice. The board is actively working to finalize the revised schedule. As of now, NBEMS has not declared a new date for NEET PG 2025. The board has stated that a revised schedule — including exam date, admit card release, and city intimation slips — will be announced soon on its official websites:
