NEET UG 2024 Controversy

On May 25, the National Testing Agency (NTA) administered the NEET UG exam 2024 to a record-breaking 24 lakh students. The exam for admission to MBBS, BDS, and other undergraduate medical programmes was administered in paper format in 2024. Weeks prior to the exam, there were rumours that NEET papers had leaked. Nevertheless, the NTA denied the rumours and went forward with the scheduled exam.

Following a report of incorrect question paper distribution from one of the exam locations in Rajasthan, re-examinations for the impacted students were conducted. Following the announcement of the NEET UG results for 2024, many questions were raised. One of the most significant anomalies that have been documented is the distribution of grace marks to applicants without making the announcement in conjunction with the exam notification.

The top percentile candidates in the NEET results of 2024 were discovered to have the same roll number sequence and to have taken the exam at the same locations. A four-member committee has been created to analyse the NEET results of over 1,600 NEET candidates who were given grace marks to make up for the lost time, NTA director general Subodh Kumar revealed at a news conference as controversy and inquiries grew. Dissatisfied with the reaction, a number of political figures, student organisations, and prospective MBBS students began bombarding X and other social media platforms with demands for the students’ justice.

NEET UG 2024 Results: Priyanka Gandhi Vadra expresses worries

In reference to the NEET result controversy, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said on X that students are claiming that there was a scam in the results as well as the first leak of the NEET UG 2024 exam material. Concerns are being made about six students from the same centre receiving 720 out of 720 points, and a variety of abnormalities are being discovered. However, when the results were made public, numerous kid suicides have been reported around the nation. This is shocking and incredibly sad.

According to the NTA, two to three candidates received torn OMR sheets, resulting in a loss of time, while around 1,600 students from six centres received inaccurate question papers. The impacted applicants petitioned the High Court for a make-good exam or additional credit. After forming an expert group to look into the matter, it was suggested that the students get reimbursement for the time they had lost.

Conclusion

The NEET UG 2024 exam has been mired in controversy due to allegations of a paper leak, grace mark distribution without prior notice, and other irregularities. The situation has led to widespread concern among students, political figures, and the general public. The Supreme Court is now considering a petition to annul the exam results and order a re-examination.

As the National Testing Agency (NTA) and involved parties address these issues, the future of many aspiring medical students hangs in the balance. This ongoing controversy underscores the importance of maintaining transparency and fairness in high-stakes examinations like NEET UG 2024.
