The National Testing Agency (NTA) on Saturday published the detailed city-wise and centre-wise results of the NEET-UG 2024 exam on its website. The agency published the marks obtained by candidates as per an order by the Supreme Court on Thursday.
However, the published data does not include the roll number of candidates. Instead, it contains only serial numbers. This is because the Supreme Court had ordered to publish the marks without disclosing the identity of the students.
A notification published by NTA said, “Pursuant to the order dated:18 July 2024 of Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in W.P (Civil) No. 335 of 2024, the NTA has published the result of the NEET (UG)-2024. The result has been published State/City/Centre wise marks obtained by Candidates without disclosing the identity of the Candidates.”
The candidate-wise marks for each centre in all the cities have been uploaded on the NTA website. On clicking the link for ‘NEET (UG) 2024 – Result Published City/Centre Wise’, the result webpage opens when one can see an alphabetical list of centre state, centre city and centre name.
There is a ‘View Details’ button on each row, clicking which downloads the PDF of the marks obtained by all candidates in that centre. One can also select state and city from drop-down menus on the top to select a particular centre.
Hearing the petitions related to NEET UG 2024, the Supreme Court bench of CJI DY Chandrachud, justice J.B. Pardiwala and Justice Manoj Misra on 18th July ordered the NTA to publish the marks obtained by students at the UG-2024 NEET examination without disclosing the identity of the students. “The result should be declared city and centrewise by 12 noon on 20 July 2024 and shall be uploaded on the website of the NTA,” the order had stated.
The bench said that the petitioners have submitted that it would be appropriate if the result of the UG-2024 NEET examination is published on the website by the NTA so as to bring about transparency on the centre wise marks obtained by candidates.
The NTA on 30 June also released the results of the re-test of NEET UG held on 23 June. While 1563 candidates were eligible for re-test, 813 candidates appeared in the exam, while the result chose to retain their original marks. These 1563 candidates were granted grace marks on account of ‘loss of time’, which was cancelled and they were given the option of re-test.
