Hyderabad: An annoyed NEET aspirant who scored 400-480 out of 720 in NEET-2018 has written an open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi explaining the hardships aspirants faced due to the NEET examination.

According to the aspirant, the main aim of the NEET was to ease mental and financial burden on medical aspirants and to prevent malpractices like capitation fees and to ensure merit remained the sole criterion for admissions. But none of these were followed alleged the aspirant.

Students who could not even make it to 150 out of 720 in the entrance were getting seats in private medical colleges and even in deemed universities across the country. Meritorious students, on the other hand, were losing government seats even due to one mark and were being forced to join private medical colleges.

“Students who are not deserving are getting admission with the power of money and what kind of doctors will they become in future? If they are not able to pay it, will their child end up sitting at home? There are numerous students like us who secured good marks in NEET, but are yet to get a seat in government medical colleges. Seats are a handful and aspirants are 13 to 14 lakh,” he said in the letter.

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday stayed an order of the Madurai bench of Madras High Court awarding 196 grace marks to NEET students who had opted to write the examination in Tamil language on account of error in translation.

A bench of Justices SA Bobde and L Nageswara Rao stayed the order and issued notice on a plea of the CBSE challenging the high court order.

The bench posted the matter for hearing after two weeks and asked the parties to come out with a solution to deal with the situation, saying, “We cannot dole out marks in this fashion”.

The bench observed that it appears that after the judgment, the students who opted for the Tamil language are in an advantageous position over others.

The Madurai bench of the Madras High Court had on 10 July ordered the CBSE to grant 196 marks – 4 marks each for 49 erroneously translated questions – in the Tamil version of this year’s NEET to the students who took the exam in the regional language.

National Eligibility and Entrance Test, NEET 2019 is expected to be conducted only once and in pen and paper format. As per reports, the Ministry of Human Resource Development, MHRD is considering the concerns raised over the proposal of conducting NEET 2019 in online mode. With restrictions of rural candidates, sources close to HRD have suggested that the proposal of continuing NTA NEET 2019 in the same pattern and format is being considered and a decision is expected this week.

NEET 2019 would be conducted by the National Testing Agency, NTA as announced by HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar. However, instead of the proposed twice a year, the examination may be conducted once, in the month of May or June, as was the case under CBSE till this year. As per the announcement, NTA had planned NEET 2019 to be conducted in computer based format I February 2019 and then again in May 2019.

Though the reports have not been confirmed as yet, the sources have shared that Health Ministry has approached HRD to reconsider its plan to conduct the examinations in online or computer based format. The health ministry has also reportedly asked HRD to rethink its decision to conduct NEET twice a year.

“The health ministry also feels that CBSE should assist NTA in the conduct of the exam as the Board has been conducting it for many years earlier in the form of PMT”, said a source to TOI. The HRD is considering the requests and proposals and a decision on the same is expected within this week.

As for the pros and cons of the decisions, various experts feel that the transition would be a concern but computer based tests are the future. Many pointed out that with NEET being the single point examination for admissions to all undergraduate medical and dental seats, the logistic challenge of conducting the examination in online format were immense.

“Its not merely the number of students that appear for the examination. It is the fact that students even from remote areas appear for the examination that is the concern. Making sure that all the students are able to transition without concerns to the online mode is a task which NTA would have to facilitate,” shared an expert.

As for the twice a year or once a year debate, experts pointed out that the decision in the end is about the feasibility of the examination. “If the ministry was to consider pen and paper based format, the cost of conducting the examination twice a year could be an evident challenge.” Experts however are divided over the debate and believe that it would be a balancing act for the HRD ministry.
