Bharat Rashtra Samithi Vidyarthi and Student Islamic Organisation staged separate protests in Hyderabad against the alleged NEET paper leak. The student groups demanded a transparent Supreme Court-monitored investigation and criticised the Centre and NTA over alleged examination irregularities.

Hyderabad: Bharat Rashtra Samithi Vidyarthi (BRSV) on Wednesday held a protest at Lok Bhavan here against the NEET paper leak. Tension prevailed for a while, as the student leaders attempted to gain entry into Lok Bhavan to register their protests.

Holding placards, the students raised slogans against the Centre and blamed the Modi government for the NEET paper leak. The student leaders were prevented from gaining entry into the Lok Bhavan by the police personnel present there.

The protestors described the NEET paper leak as a betrayal of lakhs of students who sacrificed their sleep, time, mental peace, and family savings for their future. “As BRSV student leaders, we stand firmly with students across the country and demand justice for every aspirant,” they said. The BRSV also demanded a transparent investigation into the NEET paper leak, which has to be monitored by the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile, the members of Student Islamic Organisation (SIO) also participated in a dharna on Wednesday in front of the Ambedkar statue at Tank Bund. The SIO members highlighted the failures of the NTA in conducting the NEET examination for the past several years.

If a national-level exam like NEET could not be conducted transparently, it exposes the complete failure and negligence of the Central government. Students from poor and middle-class families spend years preparing with hard work and dedication, while exam mafias destroy their future through corruption and leaks, the members of SIO said.
