In a significant development, Congress general secretary Randeep Surjewala has flagged potential irregularities in the recently announced NEET-UG 2023 results, urging the government to uphold accountability. According to Surjewala, the future of approximately 24 lakh students hangs in the balance due to the alleged discrepancies.
Surjewala highlighted a striking anomaly where 67 candidates secured a perfect score of 720 out of 720, an occurrence he deemed impossible due to the nature of the NEET examination, which deducts marks for incorrect answers. 'Is it conceivable that 67 individuals achieved 100% accuracy? Is this just a coincidence or an alarming experiment?' he queried, noting that past years only saw a single topper.
Further complicating the matter, Surjewala pointed out that many of these top-ranking candidates hailed from the same examination center in Faridabad, Haryana, where additional discrepancies such as the wrongful distribution of question papers were reported. He called for a thorough investigation to restore the credibility of the examination that impacts millions of students.
