Headnote | Education – Examination – NEET-PG 2022 – Petitioners sought postponement of Examination – Exam was scheduled on May 21, 2022 – Petitioners sought the issuance of direction for the postponement of the NEET-PG 2022 examination till the issue of counselling for the NEET-PG 2021 examination gets resolved – Petitioners further prayed to permit students who have participated in the counselling for the NEET-PG 2021 examination to register for the NEET-PG 2022 examination by extending last date for registration – Held: Petitioners and other similarly placed doctors have participated in the counseling process for NEET-PG 2021 – They were not barred from registering for NEET-PG 2022 – Over 2 lakh doctors have registered for the examination – Their schedule would be seriously affected if a further postponement is granted – During Covid waves, postponements were granted, since there was an unprecedented human crisis – However, same should not become the norm – Doing so will disturb the sanctity of medical education – Any delay in conducting the examination will lead to a fewer number of resident doctors in hospitals – Further, these matters essentially pertain to policy domain – Unless the Court is satisfied that the decision was taken by the authorities is without application of mind to relevant circumstances or was manifestly arbitrary, there would be no reason for the Court to interfere – The request for a further postponement cannot be entertained for the reason that this would seriously impact the availability of patient care and qualified postgraduate doctors – Therefore, reliefs sought cannot be granted – Accordingly, the petition is dismissed. |

NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
