Stop gambling with children's future: Rahul slams government over NEET aspirant exam centre mix-up
The NTA said the student will be reassigned to Nagpur after a revised admit card mistakenly listed Abu Dhabi as the exam centre.
- On Saturday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi criticized the Modi government and the National Testing Agency after a Nagpur student was assigned an exam center in Abu Dhabi for the NEET-UG re-exam.
- Abdullah, a student from Nagpur, discovered his revised admit card listed a test center in the United Arab Emirates despite selecting local cities like Wardha and Bhandara, causing distress as he lacked funds and a passport for international travel.
- Gandhi described the education structure as a 'rejection system' that is 'extremely stressful and unfair,' asserting the government must 'stop gambling with our children's future' while arguing the system exploits students' money, time, and mental peace.
- Following public outcry, the National Testing Agency acknowledged the complaint and confirmed the matter is under review. Officials assured the candidate will be allocated a center in Nagpur within hours after necessary verification.
- These concerns follow the May 3 cancellation of the NEET-UG exam amid paper leak allegations. Gandhi recently launched a signature campaign to amplify student demands regarding exam integrity and fees, seeking greater accountability from authorities.
