NEET PG conducting body, Nation Board of Examinations (NBE) informed the SC bench of justices SR Bhat and Dipankar Datta that over 2 lakh candidates have registered to appear for the NEET PG 2023.

He said students are undergoing internships for 12 hours a day and there is no time for them to prepare for the exam.
“Those who have been preparing for months together, they have to be told to wait,” the bench observed, adding, “For those who are eligible and are waiting, it is torture for them”.
NBE told the court that around 2.09 lakh candidates have registered for NEET PG 2023. When the top court wanted to know how many candidates would be affected by it, the petitioners told that though only 13 of them have approached, the issue raised by them affects nearly 45,000 candidates.
The bench of justices has ordered to hold the next hearing on Monday. The final verdict is yet to come. “We want an answer. What is the solution for this,” the bench told the ASG, adding, “We are not indicating that it will be postponed.” The bench further said, “We are not passing any order either way. We are keeping it open.”
