The NEET exam is currently facing serious allegations of sabotage, leading to demands for a retake of the examination. Students have come forward and filed a complaint with the Union Ministry of Education, urging for an investigation into the matter. There are claims that 67 students obtained the first rank, with some students being granted grace marks. These allegations have sparked the need for a re-conduction of the NEET exam. However, sources from the National Testing Agency (NTA) have dismissed these allegations as baseless. They have assured that the complainants will be convinced of the fairness of the exam.
The credibility of the NEET exam is being questioned due to these serious allegations. It is alleged that 67 individuals achieved the first rank when the results were announced. The complainants further claim that six of these individuals appeared for the exam from the same center. The NTA has explained that grace marks were given to 47 individuals who obtained the first rank due to errors in the NCERT textbook answers. These grace marks were awarded based on the complaint that the second rank students did not have sufficient time. The NTA has clarified that the decision to grant grace marks was in accordance with previous court rulings. However, students and teachers are expressing their objections to this decision. Students from Kerala and North India have taken to social media to launch a widespread campaign, accusing the examination of being sabotaged. The Ministry of Education is reportedly looking into these allegations.
In the midst of this controversy, the Congress party has staged a protest against the central government, holding them responsible for the NEET exam controversy. They have accused the government of jeopardizing the future of students and failing to prevent paper leaks in any examination. The Congress party has alleged that the results of the examination have also been tampered with, putting the future of lakhs of students at stake.
