Congress leaders demand that the Prime Minister and the Education Minister be held accountable after media reports on assertions by top officials of the National Testing Agency (NTA) regarding the NEET examination. The party reacts to NTA statements that the NEET question paper was “not leaked,” saying the position amounts to a “cover-up.” Congress also criticizes the NTA, describing it as a “National Trauma Agency,” and accuses the government of working with elements it calls the “paper leak mafia” to suppress evidence of irregularities and fraud in NTA-conducted exams.
Congress says that even before the NEET exam date, a “guess paper” containing questions that students later associated with the actual exam was circulating. In public comments, it argues that the government’s stance and alleged institutional actions are inconsistent with reports of possible irregularities.
While the sources recount Congress’s accusations and characterizations, they also reflect that NTA officials are making claims that the paper was not leaked. The dispute centers on competing narratives about whether there was leakage and how the issue is handled.
