The Supreme Court on Monday issued notice in a plea concerning the NEET-UG 2026 examination filed by the Federation of All India Medical Association (FAIMA).
The matter was heard by a Bench comprising Justice P.S. Narasimha and Justice Alok Aradhe.
Appearing for the petitioners, Advocate Tanvi Dubey submitted grievances relating to the conduct of the examination and sought urgent intervention from the Court. During the hearing, the Bench orally remarked: “NTA has not learnt its lesson yet.”
