More than 24 lakh candidates took the NEET-UG 2024 exam at 4,750 different centres located in 571 Cities throughout the country, including 14 cities outside India on May 5. The re-examination was conducted on June 23 for 1,563 candidates who had experienced time loss during the originally scheduled examination on May 5.

The declaration was made days after the Supreme Court directed the NTA to release results after revising the answer of one Physics question. The NTA had treated the two of the four options as correct answers to the Physics question and had granted four marks to those examinees who had marked these options – based on different NCERT books.

Now, only those students, whose answers match the one given by IIT-Delhi, will get four marks for the question. Meanwhile, over 4 lakh NEET-UG aspirants, who answered the other option as per the old NCERT textbook, will lose five marks instead.

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court had also dismissed the pleas seeking cancellation and re-test of the controversy-ridden exam, holding that there was no evidence on record to conclude that it was "vitiated" on account of "systemic breach" of its sanctity.
