Supreme Court: No NEET-UG retest, but 4 lakh candidates to lose 5 marks each

Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected pleas for a retest for admissions to 1.08 lakh MBBS seats in govt and private medical colleges in the absence of evidence to establish that the exam paper leak in Hazaribag vitiated the results or breached the examination’s sanctity and integrity, a verdict that lifted the haze of uncertainty that had hung over NEET-UG while also ending the anxiety that had faced those likely to fetch the much-coveted seats in medical colleges across the country.
