Demanding an impartial probe into the allegations of irregularities in NEET-UG 2024 exam, West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to abolish the Natio𝔍nal Eligibili😼ty cum Entrance Test (NEET) Examination.

TMC suprem♍o Banerjee has demanded PM Modi to revert to the previous system in which states conducted𒈔 their entrance examinations.

“I strongly urge you to consider and take immediate steps to restore the previous 🦩system of conducting this examination by the state governments and abolish the NEET examination. This will help restore normalcy and confidence of the aspirant students inཧ the system,” she has said in a letter to PM Modi.

She said the matter shou♔ld be inves♍tigated thoroughly.

“Such instances jeopardise the career and aspirations of students who look forward to get admission into these medical courses. Such instances not only compromise the quality of medical education but adversely affect the quality of med𝓡ical facilities and treatment,” she said in her letter.

“The present system has l🥀ed to massive🥀 corruption,” she added.

Meanwhile, in another letter to Modi, Banerjee has expressed her “strong reservation” over the Centre excludin🅘g the state government from discussions with Bangladesh regarding Teesta water sharing and the Farakka Treaty.

She has said that the two issues should not be discussed without the Bengal government’s involvem🔴ent.

Banerjee also referred to the recent discussions between PM Modi and Ba��ngladesh 🍸Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in New Delhi.

She🥀 said it appeared that water-sharing issues relating to the Ganges and Teesta rivers may have been discussed during the me💦eting.

“Such unilatera𝓡l deliberations and discussions without consultation and opinion of the state governme𒅌nt is neither acceptable nor desirable,” Banerjee said.
