Notably, delays are due to the ongoing legal cases, which include petitions demanding the release of full question papers and answer keys, considering the exam transparency.
Supreme Court has denied to put stay on the NEET PG 2025 counselling and directed NBEMS to comply with the transparency and candidates concerns in its last hearing.
