Justice Kausik Chanda took suo motu cognizance of the matter after receiving emails from candidates on the merit list of the JEMAS-PG (postgraduate medical) exam and from WBJEEB itself, raising concerns over the handling of reservations.

The results, which were initially set for release on June 5, remain on hold due to ongoing legal disputes over the revised OBC reservation list.
