As per the latest discussions between the Federation of All India Medical Association (FAIMA) and the health ministry, the NEET PG 2025 counselling process is expected to begin by mid-October 2025. However, MCC has not yet issued an official notification confirming the exact start date and time.

NEET PG 2025 Supreme Court Hearing on Transparency Case
The Supreme Court of India will hear a petition related to NEET PG 2025 transparency on October 28, 2025. The petitioners have sought directions for the NBEMS to release the NEET PG question paper and provide more clarity regarding the examination process. Meanwhile, the case has also raised data security concerns. Reports suggest that personal information of several NEET PG aspirants, including names, contact numbers, and roll numbers, was allegedly leaked and sold online for INR 3,599. The alleged breach has prompted questions about data protection measures under the National Medical Commission (NMC) and NBEMS.
