Former Chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel called for the removal of Dr Pradeep Kumar Joshi, head of the National Testing Agency (NTA), from a state government panel on Thursday.
The panel, established to recommend reforms for the Chhattisgarh Public Civil Service Commission (CGPSC), has come under scrutiny due to recent exam irregularities.
Baghel's demand follows the cancellation of the UGC-NET exam and allegations of a NEET exam scam. He argued that the involvement of Dr Joshi, a former UPSC Chairman, raises concerns over the credibility and transparency of the exams conducted by CGPSC.
