New Delhi:The Supreme Court will hear the plea seeking transparency in the National Eligibility-Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET PG) 2025 exam on September 23. The Apex Court bench has listed the matter at the top of the board on September 23, and proceedings will begin with the NEET PG 2025 case. "List on 23-9-2025 on top of the Board," the Apex Court bench comprising Justices J.B. Pardiwala and K.V. Viswanathan ordered on 19.09.2025, when the matter came up for hearing. had earlier reported that a group ofNEET-PG 2025aspirants filed a plea before theSupreme Courtchallenging the "corrective notice" issued by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) on August 21. The plea claimed that the new disclosure mechanism of answer keys, as announced by NBEMS, is "opaque, unintelligible and incapable of meaningful verification." In the notice dated 21.08.2025, NBEMS mentioned that the sequence of questions asked within a section of the Question paper of NEET-PG 2025 is shuffled for different candidates, and the order of four options for a question are also shuffled for different candidates. Therefore, NBE had decided that the questions, correct answer key and responses marked shall be displayed as per the sequence in Master set of Question Paper used for NEET-PG 2025. When the matter came up for hearing before the top court bench comprising the Chief Justice and Justice K. Vinod Chandran on September 1, 2025, the bench noted that the plea involved the interpretation of the order passed by the Apex Court on 29.04.2025. Accordingly, the bench directed to place the matter before the bench presided over by Justice J.B.Pardiwala. In the order dated 29.04.2025, the Apex Court bench comprising Justice J.B.Pardiwala and Justice R. Mahadevan had issued 10-point directives to reform the National Eligibility-Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET-PG) exam and the bench had also directed theNational Board of Examinations(NBE) to publish the raw scores, answer keys, and normalisation formula for the NEET PG exam. During a previous hearing of the case, the Supreme Court bench had questioned the intent of the petitioners and adjourned the matter to the next week for further hearing. The Supreme Court bench had asked the petitioners,"Why do you think there is no transparency? Is it because you got less marks?" "Whenever the court tries to ensure a smooth process, people take undue advantage of it. Just take a chance, let’s go to the Supreme Court, invoke Article 32, ask for numbers, answer keys… Whatever you have performed…"the top court bench had further added. Meanwhile, another plea by UDF was filed earlier this year, and it had challenged the NBE's decision ofNEET PG 2025examination in two shifts and the normalisation formula adopted by NBE. Previously, the Supreme Court had directed NBE to hold the NEET PG 2025 exam in a single shift and it had earlier clarified that the issue related to the second relief claim would be considered after the conclusion of the examinations.
