RTI Reveals Lack of Consolidated Records on NEET Reform Implementation by NTAPreviousNext

An RTI activist has been waiting over 700 days for the National Testing Agency (NTA) to respond to queries about NEET reforms and committee details. An RTI reply revealed that nearly two years after 101 recommendations were made to reform the NTA, there is no consolidated, point-wise record of their implementation. The NTA stated that the reform process is ongoing and involves multiple stakeholders, but no final status report exists, raising concerns about transparency and accountability.
