New Delhi: Amid allegations of impersonation and malpractice in some places during the NEET (UG)-2024 examination held on May 5, the students are demanding a proper investigation into the matter as they are worried about their future. Expressing its concern over the issue, ABVP dashed off a letter to the National Testing Agency (NTA) and demanded a probe into the matter to clear the air about allegations regarding malpractice and impersonations happening in several states.
Kavita Sharma, whose daughter appeared in the NEET (UG)- 2024 exam in Delhi told ETV Bharat, “It is very unfortunate to know that some impersonators were caught, who appeared in the exam instead of real applicants. Our daughter did hard work for the exam and is hoping that an honest candidate will get the chance. The government should conduct an inquiry into the matter and dishonest candidates should be caught.”
Taking to social media, the Bihar Police wrote, “Four fake candidates were arrested for appearing in the NEET (UG) 2024 exam in place of another student at a private school under Mudhbani Police Station in the Purnia district.”
“Seven fake candidates were arrested appearing for the NEET (UG) 2024 exam in the place of another student at the Kolaasi camp under the Koira Police Station in the Katihar district,” the Bihar police said in another post.
Demanding a probe into the issue, Ashutosh Singh, national media coordinator, ABVP told ETV Bharat, “ABVP has already written a letter to the NTA and demanded an investigation to clear the issue regarding the allegations/rumours, which will help to build trust among students. Although the NTA has issued two statements regarding this issue, it seems that the agency is in denial mode for everything, which is why we are demanding a fair probe into this matter.”
