Tamil Nadu Assembly to Pass Resolutions Opposing NEET and FCRA Amendment Bill
The Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly plans to pass resolutions opposing the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) and the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2026. The Assembly argues that NEET disadvantages students from Tamil medium, rural, and economically backward backgrounds, citing issues like reliance on costly coaching, question paper leaks, and exam cancellations causing distress. It urges the Union government to amend central laws to abolish NEET and proposes admissions based on Class 12 marks. The Assembly also opposes the FCRA Amendment Bill over concerns affecting charities.
