Notably, the NEET PG Exam Supreme Court Hearing was raised earlier on May 23 before a bench chaired by CJI Gavai, and the Court decided to consider it in the last week of May.

However, the petitioners’ counsel requested that the application be heard as soon as possible before the bench of CJI BR Gavai and Justice AG Masih, as the exam admit cards would be given on June 2.

NEET PG 2025 Exam date approaching

As per the NBE prescribed exam date, the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test for Postgraduate Courses (NEET-PG 2025) will take place on a computer-based platform on June 15 in two shifts. And the admit card is scheduled to be issued on June 02, 2025. The results will be announced by July 15.

On one hand, the NEET PG Exam date is at the threshold, whereas the NEET PG Supreme Court Hearing on shifts was still in process.

Considering the urgency, the lawyer brought it up again on Monday. “The Bench said it would list the matter this week. It is extremely urgent. The admit cards will be issued on June 2,” he stated.

The Supreme Court consented on Monday (May 26, 2025) to hear a petition contesting the National Board of Examination’s intention to hold the NEET-PG exam in two shifts.

Why student demand for single shift NEET PG Exam?

The board has scheduled the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test for Postgraduate courses (NEET-PG) for June 15, 2025, in two shifts. Students are demanding a single shift exam instead of the two shifts.

The plea, which challenged the conduct of the NEET-PG exam in two shifts, said that the varied difficulty levels across shifts could lead to unfairness. It requests that the NBE administer the exam in a single shift to ensure “just, fair, reasonable, and equitable” competition for all candidates.

Recently, the Supreme Court issued a slew of orders prohibiting seat-blocking in NEET-PG counselling and directing the publishing of raw scores, answer keys, and test normalisation methods.
