NEET UG 2024 final verdict: No NEET re-test, rules SC, says data on record not indicative of a systemic leak of paper

SC rules no NEET Retest, mentions that materials are absent on record to show the results was vitiated or there was a systemic breach in the conduct of the exam

The Supreme Court pronounced the verdict for the controversial NEET UG 2024 exam result. The top court has ruled that there will be no re-test for NEET UG 2024

“Data on record is not indicative of a systemic leak of the question paper which would indicate a disruption of the sanctity of the exam,” mentioned CJI in its verdict for the controversial NEET UG 2024 case.

SC mentioned that materials are absent on record to show results of the exam was vitiated or there was a systemic breach in the conduct of the exam.

SC recorded the petitioners’ submissions that there was a systemic failure in the conduct of the exam and the only recourse under the law is to order a re-test. The top court also noted that in such a matter, it was important that there is an urgent need to provide certainty and finality to a dispute that affects the careers of over 2.3 million students.

CJI DY Chandrachud, during the hearing of NEET UG-related matters, proposed awarding full marks to those students who had marked option 4 as the correct answer to the controversial question in the Physics part of the question paper and not deducting any marks from those who had marked option 2 as the correct answer.

Earlier today, the CBI told the Supreme Court that the NEET UG 2024 exam paper was leaked on May 5, 2024, the exam day. The paper was leaked in Hazaribagh and transmitted to Patna, the investigating agency informed the top court.

Budget: UPSC gets over Rs 200 crore for examination, selections; Lokpal gets Rs 33.32 cr for 2024-25

New Delhi, Jul 23: Over Rs 200 crore have been earmarked for expenditure on “examination and selection” of the civil servants by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) in the 2024-25 Budget announced on Tuesday.

The Commission conducts the civil services examination annually in three stages — preliminary, main and interview — to select officers of Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Foreign Service (IFS) and Indian Police Service (IPS), among others.

The UPSC has been given Rs 425.71 crore for the ongoing fiscal in the Budget presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.

Of these, Rs 208.99 crore is for expenditure on salaries and allowances of the chairman and members, besides administrative expenses, among others.

A total of Rs 216.72 crore has been allocated for the “expenditure in connection with the examinations, recruitment tests and selections conducted by the Union Public Service Commission”, according to the Budget documents.

The Commission was given Rs 426.24 crore during 2023-24.

Anti-corruption ombudsman Lokpal has been allocated Rs 33.32 crore for 2024-25. The provision is for establishment and construction-related charged expenditure for the Lokpal.

The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) has been allocated Rs 51.31 crore for the current financial year.

The probity watchdog was given Rs 44.46 crore for 2023-24, which was revised to Rs 47.73 crore for the last fiscal.

The UPSC has been in the spotlight since probationary IAS officer Puja Khedkar’s case came to fore.

The Commission had recently lodged a criminal case against Khedkar, a 2023 batch probationary IAS officer, for faking her identity to fraudulently avail attempts in the civil services examination beyond eligibility.–(PTI)
