As per official sources, the counselling for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test-Undergraduate (NEET-UG) has been deferred until further notice.

This announcement comes in light of several irregularities of NEET UG that are being probed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Also, on Monday, July 8, the Supreme Court is scheduled to hear several cases regarding the irregularities in NEET UG like paper leaks, malpractices, mismanagement, grace marks issue, 67 toppers from one centre, and so on.
Yesterday, the Centre and National Testign Agency (NTA), in their affidavits to the Supreme Court stated that a re-NEET will not be "rationale" and that it will jeopardise the future of the several honest candidates who attempted the question paper sincerely.
