The protesters gathered at Dinkar intersection, blocked the road and burnt effigies of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
They also raised slogans against the central government.
Patna Police resorted to mild lathicharge to disperse them.
Protests are taking place across the country over alleged irregularities in the NEET (UG) examination.
The Economic Offenses Unit (EOU) of Bihar Police, which is probing allegations of paper leak in NEET (UG) 2024, on Saturday sent notices to 11 candidates who were suspected to be involved in the crime.
The notices were served to them after their names and roll codes were found in the possession of the examination mafia. Out of these 11 candidates, seven are girls who are residents of different districts of Bihar.
NTA, which had earlier completely ruled out any irregularities in NEET 2024, has provided details of 11 candidates to Bihar EOU.Earlier, EOU had arrested 13 people including six examination mafias, four candidates and three parents and sent them to jail.
On the trail of the arrested accused, the EOU had found a partially burnt question paper at Learn Play School located under the jurisdiction of Ramakrishna Nagar Police Station, Patna.
The EOU found partially burnt question papers in booklet number 6136488, the content of which was similar to that of the NEET (UG) 2024 paper.
EOU had asked for the original copy of booklet number 6136488 from NTA about a month ago, but even after three reminders the original copy has not been provided.
The arrested candidates said in their statement that they had received the question paper on May 4, a day before the examination and it was the same.
The NEET result, due on June 14, was declared on June 4.
The most surprising aspect in the NEET (UG) exam was that 67 candidates scored 100% marks and thousands of students scored more than 700 marks.
A total of 24 lakh candidates appeared for the examination and more than 13 lakh candidates qualified in it.1,563 students were randomly given grace marks even though no such point was mentioned in the exam notification.
NTA told the court that the grace marks of 1,563 students will be canceled and they will have to re-appear on June 23.
However, the petitioner is not satisfied with the mere cancellation of grace marks.
They also raised slogans against the central government.
