What happened
The Delhi High Court allowed accused persons in the NEET paper-leak matter to appear for a retest. The court also clarified that the final outcome would remain subject to the result of the case.
The order arose from petitions linked to the alleged leak and the request for relief by accused persons. The legal questions around the examination and the investigation remain open.
Background and earlier position
