The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to provisionally permit two NEET-UG-2025 candidates, disrupted by power outages at exam centers in Madhya Pradesh, to attend counselling sessions.

A bench consisting of Justices P S Narasimha and A S Chandurkar scheduled further hearings for petitions filed by Navya Nayak and S Sai Priya on July 25.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court had previously denied a request for a re-test, a decision now under Supreme Court review.
