Speaking with Indian Express the President of NBE said “there were no reports of a paper leak or any other kind of such issue.” The exam, as per the NBE, was cancelled as the “Ministry wanted to check the robustness of the exam process, and we wanted to be sure that there is no vulnerability in this process.”
“A leak in the NEET PG exam is not possible, as our exam is conducted in a computer-based test (CBT) format, which means that everything is done online and the question paper is not published anywhere. Usually, we generate the question paper almost an hour before the exam, so there is no possibility of a paper leak.
“However, there are some miscreants in our society who take advantage of the vulnerability of students in such tense situations and tell students that they can help them pass the exam for a fixed amount of money. In such cases, they take half payment before the exam and then if the student passes, they claim it is because of them. If the student does not clear the exam, these miscreants run away with their half payment.
NEET 2024 Controversy
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has been at the receiving end of a lot of criticism due to issues with the NEET UG results, which were announced on the day of the Lok Sabha election results (June 4) – 10 days before the scheduled result date. First, an unusually large number of candidates (67) got the perfect score of 720/720. Then, some candidates got 718 or 719 – marks others claimed were not possible in the scheme of the exam.
