*AIDSO demands accountability and transparency in all national level exams:*
*Strict punishment to all the culprits involved in paper leakage; NTA must be scrapped*

Shibasis Praharaj, General Secretary, AIDSO, issued the following statement to the press:
"The cancellation of NEET-UG 2026 following allegations of question paper leakage in Rajasthan and the
ordering of a CBI probe have once again exposed the deep crisis surrounding centrally conducted high-stakes examinations in the country.

AIDSO strongly condemns the repeated failures of NTA to ensure a fair, transparent, and secure examination process. For the past several years, serious allegations regarding leaks, irregularities, manipulation, and malpractice in
various central examinations have surfaced repeatedly.

Those capable of breaching such a heavily publicised “secure” examination system are not ordinary individuals alone; such organised malpractice points toward the involvement of influential and highly placed networks. If every
time the real culprits are protected or investigations remain inconclusive, how can students and guardians continue to trust the sanctity of NEET and other central examinations?

AIDSO believes that these repeated failure of a deeply flawed and highly centralised examination system
increasingly serves the interests of the coaching industry generating enormous psychological, financial, and academic stress upon students and their families. This extreme corruption is a result of privatisation of medical education.

The recurring scam surrounding NEET UG and other central examinations have shattered the confidence of students and guardians. Credibility cannot be restored through press releases and vague assurances alone. The enormous stress generated upon students due to this uncertain and flawed system is unacceptable. Unless strict accountability is
fixed and the real culprits are punished irrespective of their position and power, such incidents will continue to recur.

The NTA has repeatedly failed in conducting fair and transparent examinations and therefore should be scrapped as an agency.

AIDSO calls upon students, guardians, teachers, and all democratic minded people to raise a united voice against the continuous irregularities and insecurity surrounding central examinations and to build a countrywide united
students’ movement demanding a fair, democratic, and reliable education and examination system.

Our demands:
1) A transparent and time-bound investigation under judicial monitoring;
2) Strict punishment of all individuals involved, irrespective of their position or power;
3) Full public disclosure of the findings of the investigation;
4) Immediate measures to ensure accountability and transparency in all national-level examinations. NTA must be scrapped conducting NEET UG and other Central examinations. All exams must be conducted by the government itself with transparency and accountability."

In 1930, the great poet Rabindranath, old by age, had visited Soviet Union. He was overwhelmed in admiration and wrote..

"Once upon a time the French Revolution was caused by the pressure of inequality. The oppressed realized that the humiliation and misery of inequality were universal. Thus it was during that revolution that the message of liberty, equality and fraternity was carried across the frontiers of France. But it did not endure. Here also the revolutionary appeal is universal. In the world, the people of this country at any rate are thinking of the interests of the whole humanity, transcending all national interests... They have no time to lose, because the whole world is their opponent; they must prove without delay that what they want is not wrong, that is not fraud; a decade or two is determined to prevail against a millennium.

Very small is their material strength, but the daring of their willpower defies comparison.... I am in Russia; had I not come, my life's pilgrimage would have remained incomplete.."

- Rabindranath Tagore

(Letters from Russia, Letter no 3, Moscow 25th September 1950.)

"May Day is the day when the workers of lands celebrate their awakening to a class conscious life, their solidarity in the struggle against all coercion and oppression of man by man, the struggle to free the toiling millions from hunger, poverty and humiliation.."
