The Supreme Court today refused to cancel the NEET-UG 2024 examination on the grounds of paper leak and malpractices. A bench comprising Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra passed the order in a batch of petitions. The Court stated that there was no material to indicate that the leak was systemic affecting the sanctity of the entire exam.

The Court also stated that ordering a re-examination will lead to serious consequences affecting over 23 lakh students and lead to disruption of the academic schedule, causing a cascading effect in the coming years.
