The NBEMS has notified the candidates appearing for the NEET-PG examination that the revised date would be announced by the conducting body in due course of time.
The postponement comes after the Supreme Court’s verdict to conduct the NEET-PG examination in a single shift to ensure “complete transparency is maintained”. The NEET-PG is conducted for admission to various postgraduate medical programmes in the country.
“The NEET-PG 2025 examination scheduled to be held on June 15 has been postponed to arrange for more test centres and required infrastructure. The revised date shall be notified shortly," the NBEMS said in a notification.
Earlier, the examination was conducted in two shifts, raising concerns over transparency. The June 15 examination was to be held across 900 centres in the country.
