New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday stressed on accountability for the lapses in the NEET paper leak issue and said it was “actually very traumatic” not only for the students but for their families as well if something like this happened.
“We should not disappoint our youngsters,” a bench of Justices P S Narasimha and Alok Aradhe said while hearing pleas on the matter, including one seeking a direction to replace or restructure the National Testing Agency (NTA) with a robust and autonomous body to conduct the medical entrance examination.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta told the bench that the government is seriously concerned about the concerns of the youths and Prime Minister Narendra Modi is personally supervising the situation so that there is no lacunae.
"The real problem won't stop till actual accountability arises,” the bench observed.
