Justice JB Pardiwala and Justice KV Viswanathan will take up the issues related to the NEET PG answer key publication on September 12. Several NEET PG aspirants and United Doctors Front (UDF), have filed petitions against the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS).
Despite the Supreme Court directive , the NBEMS only issued the NEET PG question IDs and answers. This defies the purpose of ensuring transparency, the aspirants alleged. In addition, candidates also alleged mark discrepancies ranging from 50 to 150.
During the last hearing, the court asked petitioners if they had filed a petition because they scored less marks . However, students argued that it was “impossible” to verify answers with just question IDs.
Why are NEET PG aspirants demanding full questions?
The directive to issue the answer key and raw marks was issued last year after a large section of students opposed the normalisation method and last-minute changes introduced by the board. This caused widespread confusion among aspirants as they claimed that the state merit list had discrepancies due to the new normalisation method.
The major problem, the aspirants said, is that the NBE does not make the answers or the questions public. On the other hand, the NBEMS reiterated that it will not display the questions and answers for public scrutiny fearing misuse of the exam content. It also reminded candidates that, by registering for the NEET PG exam , they mandatorily agree to this non-disclosure agreement.
Breaking this tradition, the NBEMS released the NEET PG answer key, but with a twist. Although the board agreed to upload the answer keys, it later issued a corrective notice, stating that it will display the question IDs. Expressing disappointment over the change in the announcement, the aspirants started demanding full questions.
After a request application was filed seeking urgent hearing, the Supreme Court agreed to hear all petitions related to NEET PG on September 12.
