The Supreme Court today refused to grant an urgent hearing on a plea seeking to conduct afresh the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test, NEET examination for admission to MBBS and BDS courses for the current academic year.
The plea, which was mentioned before a vacation bench of Justices L Nageswara Rao and Navin Sinha, sought a direction to conduct the NEET exam again alleging that the exam papers were leaked in Bihar and also circulated in states like Rajasthan and West Bengal.
The plea was mentioned in the apex court a day after the Madras High Court granted interim stay on the publication of the results of NEET 2017 across the country.
The bench said, there was no urgency to hear the plea as the Madras High Court had already granted an interim stay on the publication of the results.
