CBI Registered CASE on NEET-2024 Exam Scam scholler
This comes a day after the Centre announced that the investigation into alleged irregularities in the test would be transferred to the agency, the CBI registered a new case against unidentified people. This action is in response to a referral from the Ministry of Education’s Union, as reported by news agency PTI. This year’s medical entrance exam saw over 2.4 million candidates vying for admission to undergraduate courses.
“Certain cases of alleged irregularities, cheating, impersonation and malpractice have been reported in NEET-UG which was conducted on May 5,” a senior education ministry official said.
Two out of six exam toppers were awarded scores of 718 and 719 due to the compensatory marks. The marking scheme led to a huge uproar across the nation.
Therefore, the Ministry of Education has requested the CBI to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the entire gamut of alleged irregularities, including conspiracy, cheating, impersonation, breach of trust, and destruction of evidence by candidates, institutes, and middlemen, including attempted irregularities.
The Ministry has also requested CBI for investigation into the role of public servants, if any, connected with the conduct of the examination and also into the entire gamut of events and the larger conspiracy.
CBI has accordingly registered a criminal case and initiated an investigation. Special teams have been formed by the CBI to investigate the matter on top priority. Special CBI teams are being sent to Patna and Godhra where local police cases have been registered.

The irregularities led to massive protests by students and other organisations and ultimately forced the NTA to give clarification on the issue. The NTA clarified that 1563 candidates from six centres were distributed the wrong papers, whereas a few candidates got torn OMR sheets, due to which they were awarded compensatory marks for the lost time.
The Ministry of Education has formed a top-level committee of experts to suggest reforms in how exams are conducted, enhance data security protocols, and improve the National Testing Agency’s operations. Led by former ISRO chairman Dr. K. Radhakrishnan, the 7-member committee aims to submit its recommendations to the ministry within the next two months.
