Health Bulletin 17/ July/ 2024
Overview
Here are the top health news for the day:
The alleged NEET-UG 2024 question paper leak is not a systemic failure but consists of individual instances of malpractice, according to sources in the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Claims of a compromised examination system were deemed part of a conspiracy. The CBI's investigation has revealed that the leak's extent was limited and did not involve an organized gang. Instead, individual impersonation cases were identified, and some promises of leaked papers went unfulfilled. Instances of invigilators aiding students were restricted and caught promptly.
The CBI has submitted a detailed report in a sealed envelope to the Supreme Court, confirming the limited impact of the leak. The report, which will be discussed in a hearing today, July 17, contains specific details about the timing, duration, and beneficiaries of the leak, numbering fewer than 100 individuals.
In the latest update in NEET paper leak case, the CBI has arrested 2 individuals including a key accused who allegedly stole the paper from a National Testing Agency's (NTA) trunk in Hazaribagh in Jharkhand
Informing about the arrests, the officials told PTI that with the two arrests, the total number of persons arrested in connection with cases pertaining to leakage, impersonation and other irregularities in the medical entrance exam has now reached 14.
