NEET Results 2024: The Ministry of Education held an official press conference to address the growing concerns of students and stakeholders regarding the NEET UG 2024 results.

The National Testing Agency (NTA) director general, Subodh Kumar Singh, said an expert committee has been formed to look into the grace marks provided by the NTA in NEET results 2024. The secretary informed us that around 1,600 NEET aspirants were affected due to these irregularities. 

According to the official statement, “If needed, results will be revised for 1600 candidates based on the committee's recommendations.” The NEET UG 2024 exam was held on May 5 and around 24 lakh candidates at 4,750 different centres located in 571 cities appeared for the same. 

The panel headed by a former UPSC chairman will submit its recommendations within a week and the results of these candidates might be revised.

The National Testing Agency (NTA), however, denied any irregularities and said the changes made in the NCERT textbooks and grace marks for losing time at the examination centres were some of the reasons behind the students scoring higher marks.

Many students, parents and educators are demanding the cancellation of the NEET UG 2024 results that were declared and a thorough investigation into the allegations of discrepancies in the conduct of the examination.

“ Out of 24 lakh students problem happened only for 1600 students so the integrity of the exam was not compromised,” mentioned the DG NTA.
