The Education Minister addressed the nation regarding the NEET examination controversy and assured students that they should not believe in any rumours. He described the issue as a serious “social challenge” and accepted that despite full implementation of the Radhakrishnan Committee recommendations, there was a breach in the command chain. He said the government takes full responsibility and is committed to correcting the system. He emphasized that the case reflects a broader social problem involving malpractice networks, which must be eliminated with collective effort. The CBI has been assigned the investigation and will thoroughly examine the entire chain of events to ensure no one involved is spared. The Minister announced that from next year NEET will shift to a Computer-Based Test (CBT) system instead of OMR sheets. He also admitted that NTA needs structural reforms and greater strengthening. He clarified that NTA is accountable and has cooperated fully in reporting the issue to authorities. He urged media and stakeholders not to spread unverified claims, as the matter involves the future of 20–25 lakh students. The government is working with states and agencies to improve monitoring systems, though he admitted that lapses still occurred despite strict arrangements and AI-based surveillance.
