Former BJP leader K. Annamalai on Wednesday (July 22, 2026) urged the BJP-led Union government to engage in meaningful dialogue, uphold transparency, and take swift, appropriate action to address the concerns over the NEET examination.

“The strength of any nation lies in the confidence its youth place in its institutions. If our students lose faith in the fairness and credibility of our education system, we are jeopardising the future of our nation,” he said.

Pointing out that the NEET-UG question paper has leaked thrice over the past five years, Mr. Annamalai contended: ”Imagine the amount of pressure that it puts on students, who had to go through the examination process yet another time when the system that was supposed to bring in uniformity was failing. Yet, there was no accountability,” he said.
