The NEET PG 2025 examination has been postponed following a directive from the Supreme Court. The move comes after the court ordered that the postgraduate medical entrance test must be held in a single shift to maintain transparency and fairness.Earlier, the NEET PG 2025 exam was scheduled for 15 June and was to be held in two shifts. However, NBEMS has now confirmed that it will reorganise the test so that all candidates can take the exam at the same time, in one shift.advertisementThe Supreme Court was responding to a petition filed by Aditi and Others against NBEMS. In its order, the court said: 'We, accordingly, direct the respondents to make necessary arrangements for holding the NEET-PG 2025 examination in one shift, duly ensuring that complete transparency is maintained and secure centres are identified and commissioned.'
To meet the court's directive, NBEMS is currently identifying and arranging extra examination centres and the infrastructure needed to accommodate all candidates at once. Due to these changes, the exam will no longer be held on the earlier date, and a new schedule will be announced later.The revised exam date, along with the new city intimation slip and admit card release dates, will be notified on the official websites -- natboard.edu.in and nbe.edu.in.NBEMS had earlier planned to release the city intimation slip for NEET PG 2025 on 2 June.
