Following disclosures of a paper leak at examination centres in Patna and Hazaribagh during the NEET-UG 2024 examination, a batch of writ petitions sought cancellation of the entire examination and a fresh test for the roughly 23.3 lakh candidates who had appeared. The Supreme Court declined to order a re-test. It held that a leak had in fact occurred, but that the material on record — including a CBI status report and a data-analytics comparison across examination years — did not establish that the breach was systemic or that it had vitiated the integrity of the examination as a whole. The Court separately resolved a disputed Physics answer-key question through an IIT Delhi expert panel, directed the National Testing Agency to revise results and ranks accordingly, and constituted a high-level committee to recommend structural reforms to examination conduct.
