Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has taken a strong stand against Prime Minister Narendra Modi amidst the ongoing controversy surrounding the NEET 2024 exam results. On Sunday, Gandhi expressed his support for the affected students, promising to be their voice in Parliament. This comes as party supporters staged protests in the national capital, alleging rigging of the exam results.
Gandhi's statement on social media platform X highlighted the gravity of the situation. "Narendra Modi has not even taken oath yet and the scam in NEET exam has devastated more than 24 lakh students and their families. Six students from the same exam centre top the exam with maximum marks, many get such marks which are technically not possible, but the government is continuously denying the possibility of paper leak," he wrote.
The National Testing Agency (NTA), however, has denied any irregularities in the NEET 2024 results. According to NTA, the changes made to the NCERT textbooks and the provision of grace marks for lost time at examination centers have contributed to students scoring higher marks this year.
Despite these clarifications, the controversy shows no signs of abating. The NEET exam row has raised significant concerns among students and parents, with many questioning the transparency and fairness of the examination process. As senior members of the BJP-led NDA prepare to take oath for a record third term, the NEET 2024 controversy continues to dominate headlines, fueling calls for a thorough investigation and potential re-examination.
Rahul Gandhi's pledge to advocate for the students in Parliament adds a political dimension to the issue, highlighting the broader implications of the alleged exam irregularities. The Congress leader's vocal criticism and the ongoing protests underscore the urgent need for clarity and accountability in the handling of the NEET 2024 results.
