Al Jazeera – Breaking News, World News and Video from Al Jazeera | ‘Come back, my son’: Indian exam leak leaves trail of death, despair, anger
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article reports that India’s massive NEET medical‑entrance exam, taken by more than two million candidates in 2026, was voided after a widespread paper‑leak scandal, prompting protests, political outcry and, tragically, a string of student suicides—including Pradeep Kumar of Rajasthan and Ritik Mishra of Uttar Pradesh—who had sacrificed years of costly coaching and their families’ savings for a chance at a government medical seat. The National Testing Agency (NTA), which organizes NEET, has been criticized for chronic understaffing and reliance on outsourced workers, creating vulnerabilities at every stage of the testing process. Following the cancellation, the NTA announced a new exam date and promised tighter security, while families, educators and opposition politicians demand accountability, reforms, and in some cases the abolition of NEET in favor of state‑run admission systems.

Times of India | Why there is no NEET fix to the exam leak crisis
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article “Why there is no NEET fix to the exam leak crisis” explains that the frequency of NEET paper leaks remains largely unknown; even after the recent arrest of two brothers in Rajasthan—who boasted that five of their children cleared the exam and entered government medical colleges—there is no concrete evidence confirming systematic leaks in previous years. While a coaching hub in Sikar, Rajasthan, produced unusually high scores in 2024, experts point out that the exam’s reliance on privately‑printed papers and their transport across thousands of kilometres to over 5,000 centers makes accidental or intentional leaks plausible, suggesting that such breaches may have occurred multiple times but only come to light sporadically.
