The Supreme Court of India is scheduled to hear two petitions on May 29, filed by the Federation of All India Medical Association (FAIMA) and the United Doctor’s Front (UDF), seeking the dissolution of the National Testing Agency (NTA). The petitioners accuse the NTA of systemic failures in conducting the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET UG), particularly due to repeated allegations of paper leaks and irregularities in the 2024 and 2026 exams. They argue that the current examination system has eroded trust among students and stakeholders, urging the establishment of an independent body for future tests. Additionally, they request a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the alleged leaks and for the court to oversee the upcoming re-NEET scheduled for June 21. During prior hearings, the Supreme Court expressed disappointment with the NTA's lack of improvement since past controversies, emphasizing the need for accountability and potential reforms in the examination process.
