AAP MP Presses Supreme Court to Revisit NEET UG Ruling.


AAP MP Sanjay Singh has urged the Supreme Court to reconsider its decision against a re-examination of NEET-UG 2024. Singh highlighted the need for the apex court to take a closer look at the demand for a re-examination, suggesting that the decision might have overlooked significant concerns raised by the public and some officials.

 

In a statement to media, Singh refrained from directly criticising the court’s verdict but expressed concerns about the exam's integrity. He pointed out the unusual pattern of 67 students achieving identical top scores of 720, particularly in selected centres in Godhra and Haryana. Singh questioned the legitimacy of these results, especially in light of an ongoing CBI inquiry and the involvement of Bedi Ram, an MLA associated with the NDA.

 

Singh emphasised that these anomalies should not be ignored and called for the Supreme Court to reconsider its decision, allowing for a re-examination of the NEET-UG 2024. He urged the court to take additional time to review the circumstances surrounding the exam and ensure fairness for all candidates.

 

On the other hand, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan responded to the Supreme Court's ruling via his official X handle. He quoted, “Satya ke surya ko jhooth ka badal kuch samay ke liye chhipa sakta hai, par satya ki sada hi jeet hoti hai,” which translates to "The cloud of lies may hide the sun of truth for some time, but truth always wins." Pradhan asserted that the court’s observation of no systemic breach in the NEET-UG exam validated the government's stance.

 

He emphasised the government's commitment to maintaining a tamper-free, transparent, and error-free examination system and promised to implement recommendations from a high-level committee of experts soon.

 

Pradhan expressed gratitude to the Supreme Court for delivering a verdict that protects the interests of hardworking students. He stated that the judgement would be implemented fully, rejecting any propaganda that questioned the exam's integrity.

 

The NEET UG 2024 exam, conducted on May 5, faced significant controversy due to allegations of paper leaks, irregularities, and time management issues during the exam.

 

This year's exam saw a large number of participants, including 1,331,321 female candidates, 996,393 male candidates, and 17 transgender candidates. Initially, the announcement of 67 candidates achieving AIR 1 raised eyebrows and led to further scrutiny of the results.

 

The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (UG) was administered to over 2.4 million candidates at 4,750 centres across 571 cities in India and 14 cities abroad. Despite the large turnout, the integrity of the exam has been called into question, prompting calls for a re-examination to ensure fairness and transparency.

 

While Sanjay Singh has called for a re-examination of NEET-UG 2024 due to perceived irregularities, the Union Education Minister has defended the Supreme Court's decision, emphasising the integrity and transparency of the exam process. The controversy continues to unfold as stakeholders await further actions from the authorities to address these concerns.
