NEET candidates may soon retrieve old scorecards as DigiLocker system nears completion
New Delhi, A DigiLocker-based mechanism for retrieving previous years' NEET scorecards is in the final stages of development, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has informed the Central Information Commission (CIC), a move that could mean students no longer have to worry about losing access to their scorecards.
The development emerged during the hearing of an RTI appeal filed by a National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET)-UG 2020 candidate who sought a certified copy of her scorecard and confirmation of her qualification status for submission to the National Board of Examinations (NBE) for Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) eligibility verification.
The NTA told the commission that it had reviewed the issue and was "in the process of devising a mechanism with Digilocker to enable retrieval of scorecards of previous years by the candidates so that the same can be provided to the candidates after due authentication".
The agency added that the initiative was "attaining to reach the final stage and is likely to be completed at the earliest".
