Congress Demands Investigation Into NEET 2024 Results Amid Allegations Of Irregularities

NEET UG Result 2024: Congress in Kerala calls for an investigation into NEET 2024 result irregularities, raising concerns about exam authenticity and fairness.

NEET UG Result 2024: The Congress in Kerala on Saturday demanded a comprehensive investigation into the allegations of irregularities in NEET 2024 results. The party stated that the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) results have sparked concerns about the authenticity of the exam for medical courses, with many students questioning the process. In a letter sent to the Centre, Leader of Opposition in the Kerala Assembly V D Satheesan said many students from Kerala have personally expressed concerns about the NEET exam results.

"I write to demand a comprehensive investigation into the suspicious results of the recently published NEET results for 2024," the Congress leader said in the letter sent to the secretaries of the departments of the Higher Education and Health and Family Welfare of the union government. He also highlighted that it is extremely alarming to see that 67 students received full marks, some of them coming from the same examination centre. 

"I regret to inform you (the Centre) that any malpractice in NEET results will undermine the hopes and dreams of thousands of qualified students. Ineligible candidates would degrade the quality of our healthcare system in the long run, which is deemed to be a great injustice to the generations to come," the Kerala LoP said.  

Furthermore, this year students have received 719 and 718 marks out of 720, which is not possible to achieve given the NEET exam format. The fact that the results were announced 10 days before the proposed date casts considerable doubt on the validity of the valuation procedure. The questionable results have added credence to the earlier-surfaced allegations regarding the NEET question paper leak.

This year's NEET UG 2024 cutoff marks are much higher than usual, which has upset many students. In the exam, 67 students got the top rank, with six of them from the same center in Haryana. After the results were announced, many students questioned the number of top scorers and the grace marks that were given. This has become a major issue, with claims of problems and paper leaks, as some students received unusually high marks.
