Lucknow: Apna Punjab Media: Bahujan Samaj Party President and former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Mayawati has demanded to restore the old system by abolishing the controversial National Eligibility and Entrance Test (NEET). Mayawati said on ‘X’ today, “The issue of irregularities in NEET-UG medical examination is a hot topic from the streets to the Parliament and the Supreme Court. Whatever may be the outcome now, the pain that lakhs of candidates and their families had to endure because of this will always remain with them.
He said, “The Center has so far failed to satisfy the country in conducting such an important medical examination properly, due to which the problem is becoming more serious. The governments of Tamil Nadu and West Bengal have also demanded to restore the old system in place of NEET. A resolution in this regard has also been passed in the West Bengal Assembly. The resolution condemned the alleged inability of the National Testing Agency to conduct free and fair examinations and appealed for a common entrance examination in the state.
