Oppn plans protest in and outside Parl against alleged irregularities in NEET
Millennium Post Delhi|June 20, 2024
Amid raging controversy over the alleged irregularities in the NEET medical examination, the Opposition has worked out a two-pronged strategy to put the government on the mat over the issue.
Oppn plans protest in and outside Parl against alleged irregularities in NEET

It has decided to hit the streets to demand justice for the students and action against those responsible, and will also raise the issue in the coming session of Parliament.

The Congress, which secured 99 Lok Sabha seats, making it the biggest constituent of the Opposition INDIA bloc, has decided to hold nationwide protests on Friday and will also march to Parliament on Monday, which will be the first day of the first session of the 18th Lok Sabha. It is also likely to push for the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

Monday will also witness a protest by the student wing of the DMK - a party that has been against the national medical entrance exam even before this year’s irregularities. The protest will reiterate the party’s demand of leaving medical admissions in Tamil Nadu out of the ambit of the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET). The BJP’s former ally, AIADMK, is also against the national exam.
