NEET-PG: SC turns down plea of frontline medicos to extend deadline

The completion of internship is a prerequisite for taking the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test-Post Graduate (NEET-PG) 2022.

A Bench led by Justice D.Y. Chandrachud said any further extension would disrupt the academic schedule.
