Background

It was originally proposed that NEET be held from 2012 onwards. For one reason and another, MCI deferred NEET by one year. For the first time, CBSE held NEET in the year 2013 on May 5. Soon after that in the month of July in 2013, the Supreme Court passed orders in favor of 115 petitions and canceled NEET, also saying that MCI should not interfere with college admission .

When MCI had announced that NEET will be held in 2012, states including Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Gujarat, Karnataka had opposed saying that the syllabus would differ from the state board syllabus. In year 2016 NEET was held after the conduct of AIPMT as NEET 2. In 2017, the NEET exam was held in different regional languages. CBSE NEET UG was restored in 2016 after a five judge constitution bench recalled earlier verdict.
