Pradhan told ANI that the government is committed and that it can assure students that a transparent process related to the NEET exam will be followed.
Pradhan said that 24 lakh students applied for the exam, of which 23 lakh 30 thousand students took it.
“Whatever doubts come to their minds, some issues came to mind that some irregularities in the centre were noticed, due to lack of time for grace marks, some objections were raised in the formula used for giving grace marks, that was also rectified,” he said.
Pradhan added: “The Supreme Court permitted them to take the exam again yesterday, they have been informed. Those who want to take the exam can take the exam there as well…”
The NEET-UG examination is conducted by the NTA for admissions to MBBS, BDS, AYUSH and other related courses in government and private institutions across the country.
