According to a statement, the Ministry of Health has chosen to thoroughly evaluate the reliability of the procedures used in the National Board of Examination (NTA)-conducted NEET-PG entrance exam for medical students.

“It has accordingly been decided, as a precautionary measure to postpone the NEET-PG entrance examination, scheduled to be held tomorrow — 23rd June, 2024,” said the ministry.

The inconvenience that the students experienced is deeply regretted by the Ministry of Health. The purity of the test process and the best interests of the students have guided our decision, the statement continued.

Jairam Ramesh, a congressman, blasted the government for calling off the exam.

“No day is complete without hearing about an exam being cancelled due to the non-biological PM’s sheer incapacity and that of those around him. The most recent exam to be postponed is NEET-PG, which was meant to take place tomorrow”, according to a post made by Jairam Ramesh on X.
