50,000 medical aspirants across Uttar Pradesh face yet another agonizing delay as authorities postpone the crucial NEET UG 2025 Round 3 seat allotment results. Originally scheduled for October 29, the Directorate General of Medical Education (UPDGME) has pushed the announcement to November 4-5 following intervention from India’s highest court.
The Sudden Postponement Shocks Aspiring Doctors
Just hours before the expected results on October 29, medical colleges received an official notice stating: “The seat allotment result of the third round… is postponed till further orders.” This last-minute delay comes after the Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) issued urgent nationwide directives to prevent double seat allocations.
Why the Results Got Delayed
The Supreme Court mandated a crucial verification process requiring state authorities to:
- Cross-check all candidate records against All India Quota (AIQ) allocations
- Remove students who secured seats in AIQ Round 3
- Ensure no candidate holds multiple government medical seats
UPDGME officials confirm: “We’re implementing foolproof measures to comply with the Honorable Court’s orders. This verification protects deserving candidates from losing seats to dual allocations.”
Revised Schedule for Round 3
Officials have released this updated timetable for MBBS/BDS admissions:
| Process | New Dates |
|---|---|
| Seat Allotment Announcement | November 4-5, 2025 |
| Admission & Document Submission | November 5-8 & November 10, 2025 |
How to Check Your Results
When results finally go live, follow these steps:
- Visit the official portal: upneet.gov.in
- Click the “Round 3 Seat Allotment” link
- Search for your name in the PDF list
- Download your allotment letter immediately
Critical Reminder: Successful candidates must complete admission formalities within 72 hours of result declaration to avoid seat cancellation.
The Bigger Picture: Why This Matters
This delay affects over 3,500 MBBS/BDS seats across 65 medical colleges in Uttar Pradesh. Education activist Dr. Rakesh Gupta explains: “Each day of delay creates cascading effects – from hostel arrangements to academic schedules. But the Supreme Court’s intervention ultimately protects students from unfair seat blocking.”
What Students Should Do Now
- Regularly refresh the UPDGME website (avoid third-party portals)
- Keep original documents ready for immediate submission
- Monitor official social media handles for real-time updates
- Prepare backup options in case of non-allotment
“This isn’t just about delayed results – it’s about ensuring fairness in India’s largest medical admission process. The system is correcting itself.” – UPDGME Spokesperson
As the new November 4-5 deadline approaches, authorities assure students they’re working round-the-clock to implement the Supreme Court’s anti-duplication measures. With over 50,000 futures hanging in the balance, Uttar Pradesh’s medical education system faces its most critical test of transparency and efficiency.
