The Delhi High Court on Thursday dismissed a petition filed by 15 medical aspirants seeking postponement of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test-Undergraduate (NEET-UG).
In the petition, the petitioners had sought direction to the Centre, NTA and others to postpone NEET UG 2022 exam which is scheduled to be held on July 17.
Apart from the postponement demand, the petition filed in Delhi HC had also sought an extra attempt at the NEET-UG 2022.
Some students had also earlier submitted a 19-page memorandum to the Ministry of Education citing their issues and demanding immediate postponement of the NEET-UG exam.
