Top officials from the Union Health Ministry convened on Monday to scrutinize the NEET-PG examination process. This comes two days after the government postponed the entrance test for postgraduate medical courses as a safeguard against recent allegations questioning the integrity of competitive exams.

The NEET-PG exam, conducted by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) as its technical partner, was initially scheduled for June 23. The postponement aims to secure a transparent and fair testing environment, according to officials.

A high-level meeting reviewed the system's robustness for conducting future exams, with the TCS top brass providing a detailed briefing on the procedure. New exam dates will be announced soon, pending the availability of examination centers and further assessments.
