The Union Health Ministry on Friday postponed the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Postgraduate) NEET PG examination 2022 by 6-8 weeks. The exam was scheduled to be held on March 12. 

“Lot of representations were being received from medical doctors regarding request to delay NEET-PG 2022 examination date i.e. 12.03.2022 since it is clashing with the NEET PG 2021 counselling,” the Director General of Health Services wrote in a letter to the Executive Director of the National Board of Examination.

“Also, many of the interns would not be able to participate in the PG Counselling 2022 by the month of May/June 2022,” the letter added.  

“Keeping the above facts in view, the Health and Family Welfare minister has taken the decision to postpone NEET PG 2022 by 6 to 8 weeks or suitably. Hence, the decision made by the minister may be complied with,” the letter further stated.
