Download EBookNEW DELHI: Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav has raised serious concerns over the integrity of the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2024 results. Yadav in a tweet, highlighted that hundreds of candidates have reportedly scored 100% marks in NEET UG results, implying the possibility of a major scam.
The National Testing Agency (NTA) announced NEET UG 2024 results on June 4. Yadav demanded the court to take suo motu cognizance of the matter and conduct a thorough investigation and give strict punishment to the guilty.
"Hundreds of candidates have scored 100% marks in the results of NEET (formerly known as CPMT/PMT), which is conducted as an entrance exam for medical studies across the country," Yadav said on 'X'.

"Hundreds of candidates scoring 100% marks simultaneously from the same exam centre indicates a big scam," Yadav said. He claimed that under BJP rule, exams have become a business involving the illegal leaking of question papers, using impostors to take exams, manipulating exam centers, and controlling the results.
"It cannot be a coincidence that almost similar scams have taken place in most of the exams. Due to this, the youth of the country have started losing faith in the system", Yadav added.
Calling this as one of the biggest failures of the BJP government Yadav said that the frustration of the youth means that the future is hopeless. "Taking suo motu cognizance of this case, the Hon'ble (Supreme) Court should conduct a thorough investigation, give strict punishment to the guilty and eliminate any possibility of such a recurrence in the future. Condemnable," the post added.
