Power failure during NEET exam not a valid ground for re-test, says high court
Hindustan Times Rajasthan
|July 09, 2025
The Rajasthan high court has dismissed a batch of writ petitions filed by NEET-UG 2025 candidates from Sikar district who sought reexamination or compensatory marks due to alleged power outages and related disruptions during the examination held on May 4.
A single bench of justice Sameer Jain on Monday held that the grievances raised by the petitioners lacked merit and could not justify altering or annulling the examination outcome for thousands of other candidates. The order was published on Tuesday.
The court acknowledged that around 15 centres in Sikar experienced power failures ranging from five to 28 minutes due to adverse weather. However, it noted that only 31 candidates out of the 31,787 who appeared in Sikar - and among nearly 2.2 million nationwide approached the court with complaints.
