After a prolonged delay, the WBJEE 2025 results were scheduled to be announced today, August 7, 2025. However, the declaration has been postponed once again due to contempt proceedings initiated in the High Court against the state and the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB), among others.
After a prolonged delay, the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination Board (WBJEEB) was expected to release the WBJEE 2025 results today, August 7. However, according to media reports, the announcement has been postponed once again due to contempt proceedings filed in the High Court against the state and several others, including WBJEEB. The matter is scheduled to be heard in court today, and the Principal Secretary of Higher Education, West Bengal, has been summoned to appear and present the state’s justification.
The issue began when Justice Kausik Chanda of the Calcutta High Court received email complaints from merit-listed candidates regarding the JEMAS-PG (medical postgraduate) examination, along with a submission from the WBJEE Board itself, prompting the court to take suo motu cognizance. Earlier, the WBJEE 2025 results were set to be declared on June 5, but the Board was compelled to withhold them due to ongoing legal proceedings concerning the revised OBC reservation list. In an interim order, the Calcutta High Court questioned the West Bengal government’s updated OBC list and struck down the inclusion of 77 communities, citing insufficient justification. As a result, the WBJEEB was directed to delay the release of results until further clarity was provided.
