They pointed out that the high court stayed the declaration of NEET-UG results for the entire country although the problem of power outage was confined to 11 centres in Indore.

The NTA should be allowed to declare the results for the rest of India, they prayed.

Counsel for the petitioner Mradul Bhatnagar opposed their prayer, and submitted that if the petitioner could not appear for the examination afresh in time, she would not be able to appear for counselling rounds.

The court, however, acceded to the government lawyers' request. It was "inclined to modify the order passed.... on 15.05.2025, to the extent that the respondents may be allowed to declare the results for all the other centres in India, except the affected centres at Indore, in which the power failure was faced by the students, and the details of which shall be furnished by the respondents along with their reply," the judge said.

The court has posted the hearing of the case for Monday (May 19).
