Bidar MP Sagar Khandre calls for transparent probe into alleged NEET irregularities and paper leaks

Alleged irregularities and question paper leaks in the NEET examination drew sharp criticism on May 14, 2026, with The Hindu reporting that Bidar MP Sagar Khandre accused the Centre of “playing with the future of students”. ^[1] He framed the allegations as an issue that strikes at the core of students’ prospects and demanded that the matter be treated with urgency. ^[1]

Khandre called for a comprehensive and transparent investigation into the alleged irregularities in the NEET examination. ^[1] He also sought strict action against those responsible, pressing for accountability that matches the seriousness of the allegations. ^[1]

The demand comes amid a wider flare-up of protest and political pressure over the same exam. ^[1] On May 14, 2026, AIDSO staged a protest against irregularities in the NEET examination, adding to the momentum around calls for scrutiny. ^[1]

In his criticism, Khandre directed blame at the Centre while underscoring the need for an investigation that is both thorough and open to public confidence. ^[1] His remarks kept the focus on two linked demands: a transparent probe into the alleged leaks and irregularities, and punitive action once responsibility is determined. ^[1]
