NEET 2021: With reports about an alleged paper leak of the medical entrance exam, aspirants have been demanding CBI interfere in the matter. They also pointed that there has been a recent scam involving the JEE Main 2021.

Quick reaction from NTA has not gone down well with students and stakeholders as they claim that the matter is being disposed off without proper investigation. Aspirants have taken to the social media platform Twitter with the hashtags #CBIforNTA and #OperationNEET to voice their opinion.
