NEET PG Postponed Amid Paper Leaks Row ! Fresh Date To Be Announced Soon, 'Huge Outrage In Students'

The Ministry of Health postponed today the National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test postgraduate (NEET PG) 2024, which is administered by the National Board of Examination (NBE), in yet another blow to the country's medical students.

This deferment comes when the nation's eyes are on the continuous NEET UG test which has been damaged with charges of paper spills and different inconsistencies.

Ministry Of Health Postpones NEET PG

“The Ministry of Health has decided to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the robustness of the processes of  the NEET PG examination, which is conducted by the National Board of Examination for medical students, in light of the recent incidents of allegations regarding the integrity of certain competitive examinations.

As a result, it has been decided to postpone the NEET-PG Entrance Exam, which was supposed to take place tomorrow, June 23, 2024, as a precaution. A new examination date will be announced as soon as possible, according to an official announcement from the Ministry.

Huge Outrage In Students By This Decision

The choice is by and large intensely censured by NEET PG competitors, a considerable lot of whom needed to go to different urban communities to show up for the test. " I was studying for this exam at the hotel after traveling from Delhi to Meerut. This exam should have been given on time, and there is no reason to postpone it. Some of the applicants were required to return to their medical jobs, start new ones, or even take a family vacation.

FAIMA Questioned Government About Conduction Of Exam

The Federation Of All India Medical Association (FAIMA) has addressed rehashed changes in the test plan. NEET PG 2024 was first declared for Walk 3, and was then delayed to July 7 in January 2024. However, the NBE announced in March that the exam would be scheduled for June 23, but this time it has been pushed back.

"The public authority is unequipped for directing a test arranged such countless months prior. To get through this phase, many students wanted to get a job after the exam, but now they can't. Hearing this makes me very sad. Dr. Manish Jangra, FAIMA's founder, stated, "We suspect some irregularities may have occurred."
