What will be the Supreme Court’s decision on NEET PG postponement? – This was one of the most frequently asked questions by medical aspirants on multi-blogging site X (formerly Twitter) ever since the Supreme Court said it will hear a petition on the postponement of NEET PG on August 9.
The plea filed in the apex court said that candidates appearing for NEET PG 2024 exam are facing difficulties in reaching the exam centres with very less time, as the list of allotted cities was released on July 31 and the specific exam centre venue was announced on August 8 along with the admit card.
A bench comprising Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Mishra on Thursday heard arguments submitted by advocate Anas Tanvir on the issue and agreed to deliberate on the matter.
Apart from postponement of the exam, the petitioners have also sought that the normalisation formula for the four sets of question papers be made public before the candidates to prevent any possibility of arbitrariness in the process.
The curiosity is at its peak that medical aspirants in general and NEET PG aspirants in particular have taken to social media to get clarity about the conduct of the upcoming entrance exam on the scheduled date i.e. August 11 and are demanding in one voice “One exam, one shift. No normalisation. No re-allocation of centre.”
For example, a user named Dr. Rafi Shah said that the Supreme Court should order a new date with the old format of the exam. He said that two different sets of question papers for one exam and re-allocation of exam centers 1000 km away is “complete mismanagement by NBEMS”.
Another user named Dr CK Prabhakaran asked if NEET PG 2024 will also have 67 toppers after normalisation, as it happened in NEET UG.
Another user Saket Agarwal called upon the leaders to help the Covid warriors and demanded single shift, fair and transparent examination.
Ravi Meena, a user on X, criticised a section of people who were alleging that NEET PG aspirants were demanding postponement of the exam due to lack of preparation. The user wrote that preparation was not a factor, rather the general situation and weather conditions were one of the top factors.
Another user named Shubham Agarwal said that with one exam in one shift and no normalisation for future doctors, it is too much to expect a fair exam to be conducted.
These and many such posts are doing the rounds on social media, while candidates have barely 48 hours left for the exam. Now it remains to be seen what happens after the hearing.
