SBI Research Proposes Constitutional Right to Education and Statutory Status for NTA
SBI Research has proposed amending Article 21 of the Indian Constitution to establish a right to free and fair education, aiming to protect students from fraud and discrimination. It also recommends granting statutory status to the National Testing Agency (NTA) through a dedicated law to clarify its legal mandate, enhance governance, and ensure independent oversight. The NTA currently conducts major exams like JEE Main and NEET UG but operates as a registered society without a specific parliamentary act. These reforms follow concerns over exam security and administration.
