The Lok Sabha witnessed stormy scenes and was adjourned for the day a little past noon on Friday as Speaker Om Birla refused to accede to adjournment and suspension motions moved by the Opposition to press for a discussion on irregularities and paper leak in the NEET and other competitive exams conducted by the National Testing Agency.
As soon as the House assembled at 11 a.m., Leader of Opposition and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi demanded that the issue of NEET be discussed first. Gandhi demanded that “the issue be discussed calmly so that a common message goes out from both the Opposition and the ruling alliance in Parliament to the students”.
Before entering the House, Gandhi had said that “yesterday, all the leaders of the opposition parties had a meeting and it was the unanimous view that today we want a discussion on the NEET issue. There should be a discussion on NEET here in the House.”
