National Testing Agency (NTA) on Saturday announced the results of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test-Undergraduate (NEET-UG) 2024 for all students, categorized by city and center.
This announcement follows an order from a Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud on Thursday, which mandated the agency to release the results city and center-wise before 12 noon on July 20. The court specified that while the marks should be disclosed, the identities of the students should remain confidential.
The results can be accessed on the official NTA NEET website at exams.nta.ac.in/NEET/ and neet.ntaonline.in.
Supreme Court Order on NEET-UG 2024
The bench, which also included Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra, directed the NTA to publish the results in response to a petition seeking increased transparency. The petitioners argued that publishing the results by city and center would enhance transparency regarding the marks obtained by candidates.
The Supreme Court's order stated, "The petitioners have submitted that it would be appropriate if the results of the NEET-UG 2024 exam are published on the website to bring about some transparency regarding the center-wise marks obtained by candidates. We direct the NTA to publish the marks obtained by students in the NEET-UG 2024 exam while ensuring that the identities of the students are masked. The results should be declared separately for each center and city."
The bench will continue hearing pleas alleging paper leaks and malpractice in the NEET-UG 2024 exams on July 22.
Aspirants had approached the Supreme Court, raising issues of question paper leaks, awarding of compensatory marks, and anomalies in the NEET-UG exam.
NEET-UG, conducted by NTA, is a nationwide examination for admissions into MBBS, BDS, AYUSH, and other related courses in government and private institutions across India.
The NEET-UG 2024 was held across 4,750 centers on May 5, with around 24 lakh candidates appearing. During the hearing, the Supreme Court posed several questions to the NTA regarding the alleged paper leaks and malpractices in the NEET exam.
