“We have repeatedly pointed out the flaws and vulnerabilities in the examination processes conducted by NTA. The recent compromise of the UGC-NET exam is just one more example of their failure. It is time for the Education Minister to act responsibly and protect students’ interests,” Mr Choudhary stated.
Mr. Choudhary has encouraged UGC-NET students to participate in a countrywide demonstration that is planned on June 21, 2024, and will take place in more than 180 universities nationwide. In order to put more pressure on authorities to deal with the NTA and students’ issues, he has also asked for participation in the Chhattra Sansad Gherav on June 24, 2024.
“The Education Minister’s inaction and the decision to target students instead of holding NTA accountable is unacceptable. We will continue to protest until justice is served and the examination process is reformed to ensure fairness and transparency,” Mr Choudhary emphasized.
