dear ridhi,
yes it very necessary to have name and date on the passport size photo as well as on the postcard size photo. because in neet ug 2020 prospects or bulletin it is clearly mentioned .
Here I am providing you the exact details from neet ug bulletin for uploading of photo -

Post Card size photograph (4”X6”) (Size: 50 kb to 300 kb)
• The photographs must be taken on or after 01.09.2019 preferably indicating clearly the name of candidate along with the date of taking the photograph. Photograph should not be with cap or goggles. The focus needs to be on face (80% face coverage, ears clearly visible, on white background)
• Spectacles are allowed only if being used regularly.
• Polaroid and Computer-generated photos are not acceptable.
• Applications not complying with these instructions or with unclear photographs are liable to be rejected.
• Application without photographs shall be rejected.
• The photographs need not be attested. Candidates are advised to keep 6 to 8 passport size and 4 to 6 Post Card size (4”X6”) colour photographs with white background.
• Candidates may note that if the photographs uploaded are found to be fabricated i.e. de-shaped or seem to be hand-made or computer made, the application of the candidate will be rejected and the same would be considered as using Unfair Means and the candidate would be dealt with accordingly.
