Rahul Gandhi’s Appeal To Youth
“I want to bring a serious matter to the attention of the country’s youth. Do one thing search it yourself on Google: ‘Who was the DG of NTA during the horrific NEET 2024 scam, and where has the Modi government seated him today?’” Rahul Gandhi said.
देश के युवाओं के सामने एक गंभीर बात रखना चाहता हूँ।

एक काम कीजिए - खुद Google कीजिए: “NEET 2024 की भयंकर चोरी के दौरान NTA का DG कौन था, और मोदी सरकार ने उसे आज कहां बैठाया है?”
देखा? समझ आया?
BJP इसी तरह आप जैसे लाखों मेहनती विद्यार्थियों के भविष्य से खिलवाड़ करने वालों को…
“The BJP rewards those who toy with the futures of millions of hardworking students. It protects them and promotes them to higher positions. The bigger the theft, the bigger the reward,” he alleged.
The Congress MP further accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP of being “partners in the theft” of students’ futures.
NEET-UG 2024 Controversy
The remarks come against the backdrop of the NEET-UG 2024 controversy, which triggered nationwide protests and legal challenges over allegations of paper leaks and irregularities, particularly in Bihar.
The issue eventually reached the Supreme Court, where investigations and submissions indicated that the leak had benefited at least 155 candidates. However, the apex court ruled against conducting a complete re-examination for all students.
The controversy sparked widespread outrage among aspirants and parents, with opposition parties repeatedly questioning the functioning of the NTA and the Centre’s handling of the examination process.
Former NTA DG’s Posting Draws Political Attention
Subodh Kumar Singh, who was serving as NTA Director General during the controversy, was removed from the post in June 2024 amid mounting criticism over the handling of NEET-UG and UGC-NET examinations.
He was subsequently placed on compulsory wait under the Department of Personnel and Training before later being appointed Additional Secretary and Financial Adviser in the Union Ministry of Steel.
Later, Singh was repatriated to his parent Chhattisgarh cadre and currently serves as Principal Secretary to Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai. He is also associated with key responsibilities in the state’s power sector.
