  "account": "The Supreme Court dismissed a petition on September 3, 2026, that sought to re-conduct the NEET-PG 2026 examination. The bench, consisting of Justices P.S. Narasimha and Alok Aradhe, reprimanded the petitioner and the advocate for filing the petition and threatened the lawyer with legal consequences. The petitioner claimed that a power outage in Jaipur affected around 2,500 candidates, leading to a second examination being conducted for them on September 5. The lawyer representing the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) stated that the affected candidates were not from Jaipur but from Noida and Punjab. The court questioned the petitioner's motivation for filing the PIL and imposed a cost of ₹25,000 on them. The court emphasized the potential harm caused by such actions and ordered the Bar Council of India to take action against the lawyer.",
  "summary": "A bench of Justices P.S. Narasimha and Alok Aradhe said it will ask the Bar Council of India to take action against the lawyer for misuse of the process of law",
