No need to scrap NEET-UG, 'leak' a localised affair: Govt

IndiaTimes Saturday, 22 June 2024 ()
Maintaining that the government does not intend to hurt the interests of lakhs who legitimately cleared the entrance exams, the authorities are drawing a contrast with the cancellation of All India Pre-Medical Tests in 2004 and 2015. Spelling out the stand, Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan said that the govt does not intend to hurt the career and future of meritorious students only to buy peace with the protesters and opposition parties who have been demanding the scrapping of the test.
