NEET UG 2024 should be conducted again in transparent manner: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge

The Congress demanded Saturday that the medical entrance exam NEET-UG be conducted again and all “paper leak scams” thoroughly investigated under the Supreme Court’s supervision.

In a post on ‘X’ in Hindi, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said the Modi government has told the Supreme Court that no paper has been leaked in NEET-UG.

“This blatant lie is being told to lakhs of youths. Their future is being ruined,” Kharge said.

The Congress leader pointed out that the education ministry has said that “there have been irregularities or cheating only at a few places” but this is “misleading”.

The BJP-RSS has promoted the “education mafia” by taking control of the entire education system, he



claimed.

“Be it NCERT books or leakage in exams, the Modi government is bent on destroying our education system,” Kharge alleged.

“We reiterate our demand that ‘NEET-UG should be conducted again. It should be conducted online in a transparent manner,” he said.

Kharge also demanded that all “paper leak scams” should be thoroughly investigated under the supervision of the Supreme Court, and strict action should be taken against the culprits.

“The Modi government cannot escape from its misdeeds,” he said on ‘X’.

The Union education ministry and the NTA filed separate affidavits opposing the pleas which have sought the scrapping of the exam plagued by controversy, a re-test and a court-monitored probe into the entire gamut of issues involved.
