The top court has allowed the National Board of Examinations’ (NBE) request to postpone the NEET PG 2025 examination to August 3. The exam was initially scheduled for June 15.

A bench of the Supreme Court comprising Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra and Justice Augustine George Masih allowed the application filed by the NBE for extension of time to conduct the NEET exam.

The bench said that the request made by the NBE was based on technical constraints. "Request made by NBE saying 3rd August is the earliest possible date given by its technology partner TCS," the court noted.

After reviewing the documents submitted by the board, the court said, "Having gone through the papers annexed, we are satisfied that the prayer for extension and rescheduling is bona fide."
