Why is it important not to scrap NEET-UG 2024 according to the Centre

The Centre argues that scrapping NEET-UG 2024 is not rational and will jeopardise the interests of honest candidates.
  • Ensures fair competition: NEET-UG is a standardized test that ensures fair competition among all candidates, irrespective of their background.
  • Maintains transparency: Scrapping NEET-UG can lead to chaotic admissions processes in medical colleges, lacking transparency and accountability.
  • Promotes merit-based selection: NEET-UG helps in selecting candidates based on their merit, knowledge, and skills rather than any other factors.
  • Prevents corruption: Removing NEET-UG could potentially open doors for corruption and favoritism in the admissions process.
  • Upholds credibility: NEET-UG maintains the credibility of the medical education system and ensures that qualified candidates are admitted based on their performance.
