Rahul Gandhi criticises the government over a NEET-UG re-test centre assignment issue, where a student from Nagpur is reported to have been allocated a school in Abu Dhabi for the June 21 re-test. The family of the aspirant alleges that the exam centre allocation is incorrect and has raised concerns about disruption to the student’s plans.
Both outlets report that Gandhi frames the situation as harmful to students and calls on authorities to address the mistake. Times of India adds that Gandhi targets the broader education system, referencing other alleged issues such as paper leaks and high fees, and describes the overall process as causing stress for aspirants.
According to Times of India, the National Testing Agency (NTA) is addressing the centre mix-up and is expected to ensure that the student is provided with a centre within India rather than abroad. The reports indicate that the main focus is correcting the exam centre allocation for the re-test and preventing similar errors.
