Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court ruled that the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) must ensure that the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET-UG) is conducted in a manner that is fair and equitable to all candidates, including those who opted for regional languages. The Court emphasized the need for uniformity in the examination process as per the regulations under the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956 and the Dentists Act, 1948. The appeals by the CBSE were dismissed, affirming the rights of students to take the exam in their preferred language, thereby upholding the principles of equality and non-discrimination in educational assessments.
