NEET, ‘masquerading’ as a measure of merit, is a ‘scam’ and Centre must stop defending national test, M K Stalin said on Sunday. Stalin said in a post on X: “The ongoing controversies around #NEET highlight its fundamentally inequitable nature. In a society where education has been denied for thousands of years, we should offer more opportunities for advancement of the oppressed.
On the contrary, NEET hinders the opportunities of such students.” He said: “Despite the Union Education Minister’s defense of the NTA, recent events paint a different picture. The Gujarat Police have registered an FIR over allegations of invigilators tampering with OMR sheets in exchange for monetary benefits, involving cheques worth several crore rupees and eight blank cheques.”
Serious questions on integrity of NTA: Cong
The Congress said there are “serious questions” on the integrity of the NTA and the manner in which NEET is designed and administered. “I was a member of Parliament’s Standing Committee on Health and Family Welfare between 2014 and 2019 and recall broad support for NEET. There were MPs who raised concerns that NEET would privilege CBSE students and would disadvantage students from non-CBSE,” Jairam Ramesh said.
