Overview
- A NEET re‑exam candidate from Haveri, Karnataka, Bindushree Jagdish Pawar, says the scanned OMR published by the National Testing Agency does not match her sheet and that her provisional score of about 668 was recorded as minus 11 after results were published.
- The uploaded OMR for the candidate shows only 41 marked answers and lists entry and exit times one minute apart, which the family and the student say is inconsistent with her account of attempting 165 questions.
- The NTA says it has verified records in reported cases and found results consistent with originals while warning that some OMR images circulating online are forged or digitally altered and could invite legal action.
- Local officials reviewed CCTV and confirm the student remained in the exam hall for the full three‑hour session, and the Haveri district administration has forwarded the family’s complaint to the NTA after repeated unanswered requests.
- The Calcutta High Court has ordered the NTA to produce original OMR sheets by Friday, a step that intensifies judicial oversight and could set a precedent for other candidates challenging re‑NEET results and affect the upcoming counselling process.
