NEET, days after deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar demanded the states be allowed to conduct their own entrance exams. He demanded a CBI enquiry into the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET)-2024 in the wake of the exam’s on-going grace marks controversy, terming it a scam of the Modi-government. “The central government’s reluctance to order a probe despite the exposure of this massive scam raises doubts in the minds of the people.

The Modi government is playing with the future of 24 lakh students across the country,” Patil said.

The Apex Court has told the Centre to accept if it has bungled. It’s sad that the Centre is not taking this seriously even as students and parents continue their protests across the country,” he said.

Donald Trump has said in an interview that he wants to give automatic green cards to foreign students who graduate from US colleges, a sharp departure from the anti-immigrant rhetoric he typically uses on the campaign trail.
