Answers to 3 questions in NEET UG 2025 were wrong! Student reached Supreme Court against NTA, demanding to release the result again
The National Testing Agency (NTA) released the result of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2025 on June 14. Since then, the students who have passed NEET are waiting for the counseling to start for admission, but Shivam Gandhi Raina, a student who passed NEET UG 2025, has challenged the answer key of NEET UG 2025 in the Supreme Court. Raina claimed in her petition that the answers to three NEET UG 2025 questions were incorrect, but NTA left them in the final answer key. His rank has been affected as a result of this. The student has requested, in the filed petition, that the incorrect answers be removed from the revised score and that counseling be stopped. Let us understand what is the whole matter?
Which inquiries were answered incorrectly? In a petition filed in the Supreme Court, NEET UG 2025 successful student Shivam Gandhi Raina has challenged the final answer key. Raina said in his petition that the answers to three questions in the final answer key of NEET UG were wrong. Raina has clarified in his petition that the answers to questions number 52, 136 and 140 of NEET UG 2025 were wrong. Despite abundant evidence from NCERT textbooks, the petition asserts that the NTA did not correct incorrect responses to several questions, including question 136 (code 47) of NEET UG 2025. Advocate Sarthak Chaturvedi, the lawyer of the student who filed the petition, said that it is clearly written on page number 245 of NCERT's class 11 biology textbook that adrenal cortical hormones control the heart rate, yet NTA ignored this evidence. He said that after the provisional answer key was released by NTA, the student had demanded to correct the answers of the questions on June 4 based on NCERT books, but no correction was made in the final answer key and the result was released.
5 numbers were lost! We now require bonus numbers. The student has said in his petition that he has suffered a loss due to wrong answers to the questions asked in NEET UG 2025. For example, he has lost a total of 5 marks. On one hand, he lost 4 marks due to wrong answer to the question, on the other hand, one more mark was deducted due to negative marking. In this way, he has lost 5 marks.
The student has asked for extra points. In the petition, the student has said that after losing 5 marks, he has got a total of 565 marks in NEET UG 2025. On this basis, his All India Rank is 6783 and rank in General Category is 3195. If he had got 5 more marks, his ranking would have improved and he would have got admission in a better medical college.
Now all eyes on the Supreme Court
The student has requested a stay on NEET UG 2025 counseling, instructions to re-check the answer key, bonus marks for incorrect answers, and the release of the revised NEET result in his petition. After this, the Supreme Court is the focus of all attention. It is believed that if the decision does not come on time, then the student's one year may be wasted.
