GHAR - WAPSI
The MCI was abolished by the Government of India alleging corruption, irregularities and malpractices in Medical Education and replaced by National Medical Commission, whose performance in recent times has been no better.After the Apex Court's order of NO RE-NEET, the next all important question is whether NEET or the NTA is actually needed ?.
A Shattered Dream: Reflections on NEET 2024 and the Pain of Injustice
The NEET 2024 examination will be remembered not for the triumphs it should have celebrated, but for the heartbreak it left in its wake. The news of paper leaks and the resulting rank inflation has crushed the hopes of countless aspiring doctors, sending shockwaves through their families. For some, the dream of donning a white coat has been postponed indefinitely; for others, it has been abandoned altogether, as they shift their focus to new paths. The echoes of their struggles linger in the hearts of their parents, who recount this journey with emotions that range from deep pride to profound sorrow.
SATYAMEV JAYATE
With the NTA's alleged irregularities numbering around 21, it is in the eye of a storm vehemently trying against all odds to salvage its remaining self respect by doing everything possible in the name of the game to stop a RE- NEET from taking place and this time succeeding too as the Apex Court after exploring all evidences of paper leaks surprisingly ordered a NO RE-NEET after observing that the paper leak was restricted to Patna and Hazaribagh i.e. it was localised - a decision that did not go well with the student community and many others who felt that the Apex Court had with jaundiced eyes failed to see the right thing in the right manner.
Lessons for India from NEET 2024
In the NEET 2024 case, the Supreme Court acknowledged that the paper was indeed leaked. However, the court refused to annul the examination. In response to the irregularities found in NEET, the government has formed a high-level committee to bring extensive changes to the entire process. Despite the Supreme Court's decision, most students who appeared for NEET 2024 believe that this year's exam was marred by discrepancies at every level, and many undeserving candidates have secured merit positions and are now preparing to enter medical colleges. This unfortunate situation will only embolden the paper leak mafia.
DOWNFALL SYNDROME
The entire education system needs to be freed from the clutches of the nexus operating in the shadows of commercialization. Treating the recent happenings as a symptom of something uglier to come, all stakeholders in the education system must contribute to prevent India's reputation of being a country where merit is respected through transparent examinations from going down the drain !!!
No One Rigged NEET 2024
Despite the avalanche of facts and evidence, the claim that the NEET exam paper was leaked on a large scale remains unsubstantiated. The word "integrity" should embody an untouchable sanctity, yet in the context of NEET 2024, its essence appears to have been diluted. In the past, any breach in the paper's chain of custody was enough to declare a compromise in exam integrity. Now, a localized leak does not seem to tarnish the sanctity of the examination. In this digital era, the distinction between local and global leaks appears almost ludicrous.
Why ReNEET should be done?
The entire world is watching what has happened in the present NEET row and paper leaks and what action our country is taking If nothing concrete is done there will be loss of credibility of our children who apply in foreign universities in times to come .
Chances of re exam have increased, students deserve better representation in Court
The NEET case now appears to be reaching a decisive stage. During the hearing, the Supreme Court made stern remarks, stating that a paper leak on social media would spread like wildfire. The court also mentioned that if there is a significant gap between the printing of the paper and the exam, the likelihood of a widespread leak is still high.The court also made serious comments onThe rank inflation, noting that the kind of inflation being seen is unusual and should be investigated. When the next hearing takes place on July 11, the following points should be presented before the court.
EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT " UN EDUCATIONAL"
The recent scandals in education point to the saddest reality that we are yet to consider education as the only potent tool in our hands to elevate India as a great nation. Thanks to compromises and academic standards of a disturbed conscience which are sickeningly widespread in our society.
NEET Tragedy - Dilemma between Injustice and Inconvenience
The affidavit submitted by the government to the Supreme Court acknowledges that the paper was leaked in limited areas, while until a few days ago, the government was completely denying this. The Union Education Minister had explicitly denied any paper leak. The NTA also did not acknowledge any paper leak in its press releases, even though evidence started emerging on the day of the exam itself, on May 5.
