NEET, NET controversy: NSUI demonstrations outside the home of the education minister
The NSUI staged a demonstration outside the home of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan amid the NEET UG and NET disputes.
The Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's home was the scene of a demonstration today by the NSUI in reaction to the current controversy surrounding the NEET UG and NET examination. Varun Choudhary, National President of NSUI, and a number of other student leaders demonstrated their opposition to the purported NEET and NET exam scam by holding up counterfeit Rs 500 notes.
To emphasise their charges, the leaders threw the fictitious money into the air in a theatrical manner. The police arrested the demonstration organisers and workers after it was over.
The national president of NSUI declared during his demonstration, "It is evident from Dharmendra Pradhan's actions that he has taken money in this scandal."
He went on to say, "We are prepared to offer this money openly, but the Education Minister must immediately ban the National Testing Agency (NTA) and take decisive action against the officials involved."
To rebuild public and student trust, the NSUI encouraged the Education Ministry to look into these claims right away, outlaw the NTA, and hold those in charge accountable.
The NSUI (student union) protested outside the Education Minister's house over alleged cheating in NEET and NET exams.
They wanted to get the Education Minister's attention to the issue.
The fake money symbolised their claim that the exams were corrupt.
They want an investigation into the cheating, the removal of the National Testing Agency (NTA), and punishment for those involved.
The NSUI is demanding action and the Education Ministry may investigate the claims.
