NEET 2024

Two days after the Supreme Court admitted that the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test – Undergraduate (NEET-UG) 2024 paper leak happened in Hazaribagh and Patna, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has revealed the sequence of events involving the principal and vice principal of a school.

The Centre has submitted an affidavit to the Supreme Court citing findings from a data analytics report by the IIT-Madras on July 10, regarding NEET-UG 2024. The report conclusively ruled out any widespread malpractice or localized benefits among candidates that could lead to abnormal scores.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi while addressing the Parliament spoke on the NEET paper leaks issue for the very first time. He said that the Government is making war-like efforts. PM Modi said, "I will tell every student of the country, every youth of the country that the government is very serious about preventing such incidents and we are taking one step after another to fulfill our responsibilities on a war footing."

The IMA commended the removal of the Director General of the National Testing Agency (NTA) and the appointment of Shri Pradeep Kumar Kharoka as the new Director General. "We extend our gratitude to the Ministry of Education for transferring the investigation of irregularities in the NEET-UG examination to the CBI for a thorough probe," the IMA stated.

In an extraordinary display of resilience and determination, Maulik Patel, a single child from Ghatkopar, Mumbai, has achieved an outstanding score of 715 out of 720 in the NEET examination after battling cancer.

The official said that on May 5 when two students were caught with mismatched biometric data during the NEET exam at Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan Mehta Vidyalaya in New Delhi.
