New Delhi: President Droupadi Murmu expressed the government's unwavering commitment towards conducting a fair investigation into the recent incidents of paper leaks. She emphasized the importance of holding the guilty accountable for their actions. In her address to the joint session of Parliament on Thursday, she stressed the need to prioritize the welfare of the nation over political affiliations and take concrete steps to prevent such incidents from happening in the future.
President Murmu highlighted the government's efforts towards bringing about significant reforms in all aspects of the examination process and the functioning of examination-related bodies. She emphasized the need for complete transparency and integrity in both competitive examinations and government recruitment tests. As she spoke about the importance of ensuring fairness in the education system, some opposition members raised concerns about the alleged leak of the medical entrance exam, NEET, as reported by the Bihar Police.
The President reaffirmed the government's stance on the matter, stating that there should be no hindrance in the examination process and strict measures should be taken against any attempts at unfair means. She acknowledged that such incidents have occurred in the past in various states and called for a united effort to tackle the issue at a national level.
President Murmu also mentioned that Parliament has enacted a strong law against paper leaks and is continuously working towards bringing about major reforms in the examination process and the functioning of examination-related bodies. She reiterated the government's commitment towards providing equal opportunities to the youth of the nation and ensuring their talent is recognized and nurtured.
The President's remarks come at a time when there is a growing concern over alleged irregularities in competitive exams such as NEET and NET. The government has taken swift action in response to these concerns, with the removal of the Director General of National Testing Agency and the formation of a committee to review the functioning of the testing agency. The recent cancellation of exams such as CSIR-UGC NET and NEET PG also serves as a preemptive measure to ensure the integrity of the examination process.
As the country strives towards creating a fair and transparent education system, the government remains committed to upholding the values of honesty and integrity. The CBI is currently investigating the matters of paper leaks and appropriate action will be taken against those found guilty. The government's efforts towards bringing about reforms in the examination process and preventing any further incidents of paper leaks are a testament to their dedication towards the welfare and progress of the nation.
