The Supreme Court on Monday allowed the National Testing Agency (NTA) to conduct the second part of NEET (UG) for those students who could not appear in it either because they were infected by coronavirus or because they resided in containment zones.

Accepting the request made by NTA through solicitor general Tushar Mehta, a bench headed by CJI S A Bobde said, “In view of the circumstances which have necessitated postponement of the examination in the past and in view of the prevailing circumstances, we consider it appropriate to grant permission to the NTA to conduct a second part of the NEET (UG) for Covid affected students and for those in containment zones on October  14. The result may be declared on October 16.”

A senior NTA official said, “Less than 200 candidates will take the test on Wednesday.”
