NEET-UG counseling 2024 postponed indefinitely amid paper leak row

The counselling for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Undergraduate) or NEET UG was on Saturday deferred until further notice, officials said.

The new date for the counselling was yet to be announced.The development comes amid allegations of irregularities, including of paper leak, in the NEET exam.

Amid the growing clamour for cancellation of the controversy-ridden NEET-UG, 2024 exam over alleged malpractices, the Centre and the National Testing Agency (NTA) told the Supreme Court that scrapping it would be "counterproductive" and would "seriously jeopardise" lakhs of honest candidates in the absence of proof of large-scale breach of confidentiality.

The NTA, which conducts the NEET exam for admissions to MBBS, BDS, AYUSH and other related courses, and the Union Education Ministry have been at the centre of media debates and protests by students and political parties over alleged large-scale malpractices ranging from question paper leak to impersonation in the test held on May 5.
