The burning issue of irregularities in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) has taken a new turn with four arrested men confessing that question paper for the medical entrance exam was leaked the previous day.
Student protests rocked the country last week over allegations of NEET-UG 2024 paper leak and grace marks awarded to over 1,500 aspirants. While the grace marks were later scrapped and the students were offered a re-test, paper leak was denied by the education minister.
The four men arrested from Bihar include aspirant Anurag Yadav, Sikandar Yadavendu - a junior engineer at Danapur municipal council - and two others - Nitish Kumar and Amit Anand.
