NEET UG paper leak. The NEET UG controversy went on after the result is declared,the matter went to Supreme Court. Even the SC accepted that there was paper leak.
Admission was delayed due to this there is no official confirmation for the counselling by MCC. Karnataka government is mulling the idea of conducting its own medical exam. The Karnataka government is planning to bring this bill to the assembly.
Karnataka would be the first state to start its own medical entrance exam if the Bill is passed. Though questions being raised earlier on NTA conducting this exam, the Deputy CM DK Shivakumar said that the NEET exam is benefitting students from North India. He said, “The NEET exam must be scrapped immediately and union governement must allow states to conduct their own exams. Karnataka has built colleges but NEET exam is benefitting North Indian students and depriving our own students. We all have to unitedly fight against this.”
This comes after neighbouring Tamil Nadu’s move to abolish the NEET examination and revert to the previous system of state-based medical admissions using Class 12 marks. In June, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin said that poor students could not afford to prepare for and write the NEET examination.
The Tamil Nadu’s resolution read, “NEET, which affects the opportunities of students from rural areas in accessing medical education and snatches the rights of state governments to admit students in medical colleges, should be scrapped.
The Union Government should approve the bill passed by the Tamil Nadu Assembly seeking exemption for the state.”
