Serious questions on NTAs integrity how NEET conduct demand review Cong

The Congress on June 16 said there were "serious questions" on the integrity of the National Testing Agency and the manner in which the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) is designed and administered.

The Opposition party said it hoped that when the new Standing Committees of Parliament get constituted, it would take up an in-depth review of the NEET, NTA and NCERT.

"I was a member of Parliament's Standing Committee on Health and Family Welfare between 2014 and 2019 and recall broad support for NEET. But there were MPs, especially from Tamil Nadu, who had raised concerns that NEET would privilege CBSE students and would disadvantage youth coming from non-CBSE schools," Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said in a post on social media platform X.
