Two teachers in Maharashtra were detained by Anti-Terrorism Squad in connection with NEET but were later released after being questioned.

Mumbai: Two teachers who manage a private coaching centre in Latur district were taken into custody by the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad on Sunday for their suspected involvement in the NEET-UG exam irregularities. According to an official, the ATS unit in Nanded detained the two educators on Saturday night and released them after several hours of questioning. It was revealed that one of the teachers is employed at a government school in Latur district.

The official mentioned that the ATS may call upon the teachers again if necessary. This action from the agency came shortly after the government announced that the inquiry into the alleged misconduct during the medical entrance exam will now be handled by the CBI. This decision was made in response to the widespread protests by students demanding an investigation into the matter.

The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for Undergraduate courses, or NEET-UG, is a highly competitive exam that determines admission into medical colleges across the country. It is a crucial exam for students aspiring to pursue a career in the medical field. Therefore, any irregularities or misconduct during the exam can have serious consequences and must be thoroughly investigated. The students' protests have shed light on the urgency of this matter and have led to swift action by the authorities.
