The National Testing Agency (NTA) disputes allegations of a paper leak in the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), emphasizing constant monitoring and unique serial numbers for each question paper. The agency’s response comes in response to the Supreme Court‘s remark that a leak has occurred.
In an affidavit submitted to the Supreme Court, the NTA states that reports from NTA Observers did not report any adverse incidents. The CCTV coverage in the Command Centre was constantly monitored, with no untoward incidents or indicators of paper leakage observed.
The NTA also addresses the alleged paper leak in Rajasthan’s Sawai Madhopur. The agency states that a wrong medium of the Question Paper was distributed, and some candidates protested and left the center without giving the exam. However, the NTA clarifies that there could not be a leak caused by such an incident, and the matter was resolved immediately.
The NTA emphasizes that access to the examination centers was regulated, and no Internet and mobile connectivity was possible during the actual conduct of the examination due to the installation of jammers and control over the usage of electronic devices, thereby eliminating any scope of adverse impact from such incidents.
