Ministers Laxmi Hebbalkar and Santosh Lad have criticised the Union government for the cancellation of NEET examination following question paper leak.

Ms. Hebbalkar said the Central government is playing with the future of lakhs of students by failing to properly conduct the medical entrance examination.

In a social media post, she said: “The NEET exam question paper leak is extremely unfortunate and condemnable. The future of lakhs of students who worked day and night to write the exam is in doubt today.”

“There is no other proof of the Central government’s administrative failure in not conducting even the highest examinations of a country in a transparent manner. He lashed out at the Central government saying that today, talented students of our country are suffering due to examination irregularities and administrative incompetence,” she said.

Meanwhile, Mr. Lad ridiculed the Union government for its repeated failure to conduct the NEET examination properly.
