The hearing of petitions for alleged paper leaks in NEET UG 2024 is currently pending in the Supreme Court. A bench, headed by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, will hear the petitions on July 18. After the decision, NEET UG counselling will take place in the third week of July. The central government has given this information in an affidavit filed with the Supreme Court along with the report of IIT Madras on the NEET result. The government has said that if any candidate is found involved in any kind of fraud, his candidature will be cancelled.
Regarding the NEET UG counselling process, the central government has said that students will be allowed to change seats as per the preferences chosen in the first and second rounds. Counselling will be held in a total of four rounds. In such a situation, if seats are cancelled before the third round, it will not have any effect on the overall counselling and seat allotment. The detailed schedule of NEET UG counselling will be uploaded on the Medical Counselling Committee website at mcc.nic.in.
The third round of NEET UG counselling 2024 is expected to begin in September. “If one’s candidature is cancelled after the third round, vacant seats can still be offered in subsequent rounds. However, candidates who have already been allocated seats in earlier rounds will not be able to participate in subsequent rounds,” the government has said, as reported by the Times of India.
On the other hand, if any candidature is cancelled after the fourth and final round, the vacant seats will be filled through an additional round based on the approval of the Supreme Court.
The petitions related to NEET UG will be heard in the Supreme Court on July 18. The matter is being heard by a bench headed by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud. The bench said on Thursday that the Center and NTA have filed their affidavits in compliance with the court’s order of July 8. The lawyers of some petitioners have not yet received the affidavits. Given this, the hearing of the case has been postponed to July 18.
