Calls for Comprehensive Reforms Amid Ongoing Vulnerabilities in India's Public Examinations

Calls for Comprehensive Reforms Amid Ongoing Vulnerabilities in India's Public ExaminationsPreviousNext

Recent controversies involving NEET, UGC-NET, and other public examinations highlight ongoing vulnerabilities in India's examination system beyond just question paper security. While reforms since 2014 improved transparency, incidents like the NEET-2026 leak suggest insider access and institutional weaknesses remain critical risks. Experts call for Public Examination Reform 2.0, emphasizing standardized, auditable procedures and accountability throughout the exam lifecycle, as current security measures focus mainly on final-stage protection rather than earlier stages where leaks often occur.
