Karnataka passes resolution to scrap NEET, becomes third state to do so - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The Karnataka government also urged the Centre to allow it to provide admissions based on the Common Entrance Test (CET) marks, which is conducted by the state government.

Under the National Medical Commission (NMC) Act 2019, institutions are prohibited from conducting their own entrance exams, and admission is based on the All India Rank (AIR) secured in NEET-UG.

Karnataka's move comes after the medical entrance exam was rocked by several allegations of paper leak, with the Supreme Court stating that the fact of the paper leak in the NEET-UG exam cannot be denied, before ascertaining if the nature of the leak was widespread or isolated to decide on ordering a retest.
