Several Congress leaders, including General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, have called for action against alleged irregularities in the NEET medical entrance exams. Gandhi Vadra expressed concern over students’ complaints and demanded an investigation into the reported issues.
“First, the NEET exam paper was leaked, and now students are alleging a scam in its results. Serious questions are being raised about six students from the same center scoring a perfect 720 out of 720 marks, and various irregularities are coming to light. Additionally, there are reports of many students committing suicide across the country after the results were announced. This is very sad and shocking,” Gandhi Vadra wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
She criticized the government’s response, saying, “Why is the government ignoring the voices of lakhs of students? Students want answers to legitimate questions related to the rigging of the NEET exam results. Is it not the government’s responsibility to investigate and resolve these legitimate complaints?”
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge also weighed in on the issue. In a post on X on June 7, he accused the Modi government of being “directly responsible” for the problem. “Paper leaks, rigging, and corruption have become an integral part of many examinations, including NEET. The Modi government is directly responsible for this. For the candidates, appearing in the recruitment exams, then facing several irregularities, getting caught in the labyrinth of paper leaks, is playing with their future,” Kharge wrote.
Kharge further demanded a thorough investigation. “The BJP has cheated the youth of the country. We demand that a high-level investigation should be conducted under the supervision of the Supreme Court so that our talented students appearing in NEET and other exams get justice,” he added.
The calls for investigation come amidst rising concerns about the integrity of the NEET examination process and the impact of alleged irregularities on students’ futures.
