The Bombay High Court has directed the NTA to declare the Re-NEET-UG 2026 result of an aspirant named as a witness, but not an accused, in the CBI’s NEET paper leak probe. The court said withholding the result would prevent him from joining Maharashtra’s MBBS/BDS admission process.

Mumbai, August 28, 2026: The Bombay High Court has directed the National Testing Agency (NTA) to declare the Re-NEET-UG 2026 result of a medical aspirant who has been named as a witness, and not an accused, in the CBI’s probe into the alleged NEET paper leak.

A bench of Justices Riyaz Chagla and Firdosh Pooniwalla passed the interim order on August 25, observing that withholding the result would prevent the petitioner from participating in the ongoing Centralised Admission Process (CAP) for MBBS and BDS courses in Maharashtra. The order copy was made available on Thursday.

The petitioner had approached the court through advocate Pooja Thorat, seeking a direction to NTA to declare his result for the Re-NEET-UG examination held on June 21. The examination was conducted for candidates affected by the NEET-UG paper leak controversy.
