SRINAGAR, May 29: PDP leader Iltija Mufti on Friday said the Centre exploring the possibility of using Indian Air Force aircraft to transport NEET-UG question papers to ensure foolproof conduct of the retest on June 21 reflected its “incompetence and ineptitude”.
“Now Air Force planes will transport NEET papers. Imagine the sheer level of corruption, incompetence and ineptitude. But as long as Muslims become lynch bait , click bait and rage bait, general public is happy!” Iltija said in a post on X.
The option to use IAF aircraft to transport NEET papers was explored at a meeting chaired by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and attended by Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and Communications Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia in New Delhi on Thursday.
However, as of now, no final decision has been taken, and the option would be placed before Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a final view, sources said. On May 12, the National Testing Agency (NTA) cancelled the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Undergraduate), or NEET, held on May 3 for medical admissions amid allegations of paper leak. A re-examination has been scheduled for June 21.
The paper leak allegations are under investigation by the CBI.
