Center announces new dates for NEET PG

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) on Friday announced the fresh dates for the NEET-PG exam which was earlier postponed just 12 hours before the examination as a ‘precautionary measure.’ The NEET-PG exam was earlier scheduled to be held on June 23. As per the announcement, the medical entrance exam will now be conducted in two shifts on August 11.

“In continuation of NBEMS notice dated 22.06.2024, the conduct of NEET-PG 2024 examination has been rescheduled. It will now be conducted on August 11 in two shifts. The cut-off date for the purpose of eligibility to appear in the NEET-PG 2024 shall continue to be August 15, 2024,” the Board said.

The Union health ministry on June 22 postponed the NEET-PG entrance examination, scheduled to be held on June 23, as a “precautionary measure” in the wake of allegations on the integrity of certain competitive exams.

 The health ministry had decided to undertake a thorough assessment of the robustness of processes of the NEET-PG entrance examination.  The National Eligibility Entrance Test-Postgraduate (NEET-PG) entrance examination is conducted by NBEMS along with its technical partner TCS for medical students.
