Arrest NTA chief Abhishek Singh for NEET paper leak, demands Maha Congress

Mumbai, May 12 (UNI) Maharashtra State Congress Committee President Harshwardhan Sapkal demanded that National Testing Agency (NTA) Director General Abhishek Singh must be immediately dismissed and arrested for the leakage of the question paper of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET).
“The exam paper leak mafia is operating freely because criminals are getting immunity under the BJP rule. They are playing with the future and lives of lakhs of students. The cancellation of the NEET paper has shattered the dreams of lakhs of aspiring doctors. Can't the BJP government conduct even a single exam,” Sapkal said on Tuesday.
“The very fact that the BJP government cannot even conduct examinations is a sign of an inefficient government. Students and parents across the country will not forgive this inefficient and ineffective BJP government. The Congress party has always raised the voice of the people. The Congress party is with the students to hold the government accountable for the NEET paper leak case,” Sapkal said.
