Kamal Haasan has been one of the prominent voices to repeatedly argue that education policies should remain under the control of state governments. His latest statement comes amid growing anger and disappointment among students and parents across the country after the cancellation announcement
Veteran actor-politician Kamal Haasan strongly reacted after the National Testing Agency (NTA) cancelled the NEET UG 2026 examination following allegations of irregularities and possible malpractice. He expressed concern over the mental stress faced by lakhs of students and once again questioned the NEET system.
For the unawares, in a major development, the NTA officially cancelled the NEET UG 2026 exam that was conducted on May 3 after reports of suspected paper leaks and other alleged irregularities surfaced from multiple centres. The Government of India has also ordered a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the matter.
Reacting to the controversy on X on Tuesday (May 12), Kamal Haasan criticised the examination system and raised concerns about the future of students who had spent months preparing for the highly competitive medical entrance test.
He wrote, “The hard work and dreams of 22 lakh students who studied day and night for the NEET entrance examination have been shattered by criminal gangs. Who is going to take responsibility for this mental trauma?
