According to media reports, candidates sought the apex court's intervention in ensuring complete transparency in the NEET PG exam after the National Board of Examination in Medical Sciences or NBEMS had released only the question IDs and not the question paper.

The petitioners argued that the answer key released by the NBEMS was not clear and confusing since they were not able to match the exact question with the answers.

Worth mentioning here, the board had issued a notice on August 21 informing that it would display “the questions, correct answer key and responses” for NEET-PG 2025.

However, it later issued a corrective notice wherein it said only question IDs will be released along with the answer key and responses.

Notably, the case will be heard by Justice JB Pardiwala and Justice KV Viswanathan, as per reports.
