During the previous Supreme Court hearing in September, a bench headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) D Y Chandrachud criticised the last minute changes made to the NEET PG exam pattern, calling them "unusual”. The apex court had then ordered responses from both NBEMS and the central government, demanding clarification within a week.

The NEET PG 2024 results were announced in August by the National Board of Examinations (NBE), but the answer keys and official cut-offs were not released. Given that the exam was conducted in multiple shifts, the examination board stated that it would employ the normalisation method commonly used by the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) for its exams to ensure fairness.
