Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has asserted that the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Education has not provided a 'clean chit' to Prime Minister Narendra Modi or his education system concerning the ongoing NEET controversy. In a statement on social media, Ramesh referenced committee chairman Digvijaya Singh, who noted that PM Modi is personally overseeing the proposed NEET re-examination. However, Ramesh criticized the government's management of exam administration and alleged paper leaks, claiming it has severely damaged public trust. He described the education system as incompetent and corrupt, particularly in light of the NEET-UG paper leak incidents. The committee, which met for over three hours, stressed the importance of a transparent and fair examination process, emphasizing that the consequences of failures ultimately fall on students. Members of the committee expressed their desire to avoid politicizing educational issues while insisting on the need for credibility in the examination process.
