The National Test Agency (NTA) of India released the NEET-UG exam 2024 result on June 4, when the Lok Sabha 2024 election result released. The NEET 2024 result sparks controversy for a scam after the announcement of 67 students who ranked one with full marks and among eight were from the same center. Also, two of the students got 718 out of 720, which is impossible, but they gave a clarification of the marks they got.
The exam result scheduled to be released on June 14, but it released 10 days before the release date.
NEET-UG Scam 2024 Controversy for Full Marks
The NEET-UG entrance exam conduct in our country to select future doctors. This year, the exam held on May 5, 2024, and the results declared on June 4.
The controversy sparked when people saw that 67 of the students got Rank 1 with full marks of 720/720. Among the Rank 1 students, it said that 8 of the students are from the same center. It is surprising, as we know that it is the toughest exam. A few years ago, it was impossible to score a full mark in the NEET exam, but these 67 students got it. Last year, only two students cracked full marks in the exam.
Another student questioned the fact that two AIR 1 Topper students have secured 718 and 719 marks for the first time, which is impossible. Each NEET question carries four marks, and one mark cut as negative marking. Therefore, if a student did not obtain a question that 4 marks will cut and if he attend wrong answer, then students will get 1 cut of mark with 4 marks added from the answer, so a total of 5 marks will be cut. Then how is it possible?
What NTA Gave Clarification on NEET Result 2024 Scam Allegation?
On the marks of 719 and 718 who got the NTA, it is explained that candidates who experienced time loss during the National Eligibility and Entrance Test Undergaraguate (NEET UG) 2024 have been granted grace marks. So, the score of two candidates also happens to be 718 and 719 marks, respectively, due to compensatory marks.
They also said that out of the 67 candidates who got 720/720 marks, 44 are on account of the revision in one Answer Key of Physics, and 06 are on account of compensatory marks for loss of time. It is pertinent to mention that the toppers are from across the country.

Is the NEET 2024 exam going to be conducted again?
All the controversy has sparked the question that whether the NEET 2024 Exam will re-conduct. While the NTA has not yet made any official announced of re-conduct of NEET Exam.
A writ petition has submitted to Supreme Court of India in request for re-conduction of NEET-UG 2024 exam due to allegation of question paper leakage and irregularities in the exam. Despite this, the SC has decided not to stop the release of Exam result. The NTA confirmed that the exam was fair and no strong evidence has found of paper leak. It still unclear that the NEET 2024 Exam will re-conducted. This will depends on the decision of the court. If Supreme Court will get clear evidence of paper leak than NEET exam will re-conducted.
