The petitioner, a mechanical engineer, filed a public interest litigation seeking orders from the court to direct the respondents to publish common examination protocols, provide free counseling to victims of the alleged NEET exam incident, and pay compensation. The petitioner alleged that during a NEET exam in Kerala, female examinees were forced to remove their undergarments, leaving them semi-naked. The court noted objections from the National Testing Agency respondent regarding inappropriate averments against the agency and the crime registered regarding the incident. The court ordered the respondents to file detailed statements addressing the petitioner's claims and objections on the public interest litigation qualifications and regarding the conduct of the exam and any enquiries into the alleged incident.
