The Supreme Court orders that the NEET-UG 24 exam results be published by July 20 at 12:00.

The National Testing Agency (NTA) was ordered by the Supreme Court on Thursday to post the complete NEET-UG 2024 results on its website by 12 p.m. on Saturday, breaking down the results by city and center. The testing panel has been requested to withhold the candidates' identities. Judges JB Pardiwla, Manoj Misra, and Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud were on a panel that was hearing a number of petitions regarding purported anomalies in the NEET-UG exam.

Senior attorney Narendra Hooda, speaking on behalf of the petitioner, demanded at the hearing that all student results be released in order to increase transparency.The Solicitor General contended that the findings are the students' private property and that they are not disclosed in their entirety.

To this, CJI Chandrachud asked, "Why can't you have dummy roll numbers in a sequence centre-wise?" Following hearing arguments from both parties, the court directed the NTA to release the results of the NEET-UG 24 exam, with the caveat that the students' identities remain undisclosed.

"What is happening is... the fact that there is a leak at Patna and Hazaribag is admitted... the question papers had been disseminated. We want to ensure whether this was confined to those centres or widespread. Students are at a handicap because they don't know results. We want the students' identity to be masked, but let us see centre-wise what was the mark pattern," CJI Chandrachud said.
