NEET exam row: AAP protests in Mumbai, calls it 'national disgrace'
The Mumbai unit of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Wednesday staged a protest in connection with the NEET exam row, calling it a 'national disgrace' and demanded a fresh examination, reported the PTI.
The protest held at Dadar area in Mumbai was part of the party's nationwide agitation against the alleged irregularities in the NEET examination, it said.
According to the PTI, Ruben Mascarenhas, AAP's Mumbai working president, alleged that the NEET 'scam' is playing with the future of not just 24 lakh medico aspirants, but all of young India.
"We demand that the NEET exam be scrapped and a fresh exam be held. There must be a court-monitored independent investigation and exemplary action must be taken against those involved, especially those who are from the BJP," said Paul Raphael, AAP Mumbai executive member, as per the PTI.
"The NEET scam is a national disgrace. Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan must immediately resign," Sandeep Katke, vice-president of AAP's Mumbai unit, the news agency reported on Wednesday.
