The police filed a case after receiving three complaints that girl students were subjected to humiliation when metal hooks on their bra beeped during security checks. A case was filed against those who carried out security checks and allegedly asked the girls to take off their bra.
"They asked us to remove our bra and put it on a table. All the bras were bunched together. We didn't even know if we would get ours back when we returned," said a teen who went through the harrowing experience.
"When we were writing the exam, we put our hair in front as we had no shawl to cover ourselves...There were boys and girls and it was really difficult and uncomfortable," she added.
The National Testing Agency, which denied the allegations, formed a special team to investigate the matter hours after a state minister urged the Centre to take action.
An autonomous testing organisation which conducts the medical entrance exam, NTA said the NEET dress code "does not permit any such activity alleged".
