Review petition filed in SC against NEET-UG verdict

A review petition has been filed in the Supreme Court against its recent verdict refusing to conduct NEET-UG 2024 exam afresh.

The review petition filed by one of the petitioners, under Article 137 of the Constitution, challenges the decision rendered on July 23, which had said that there was no



“systemic leak of question paper” breaching the sanctity of the entire competitive exam.

Generally, review pleas are tested on very narrow grounds like mistakes of law, errors apparent on the face of the record, etc., and are often dismissed in chambers and are rarely given an open court hearing.
