NEET exam for medical colleges shatters dreams of rural students in Tamil Nadu
- Thread starter kvpak
- Start date
The PEOPLE OF TAMIL NADU are opposed to Indian gov intrusion into our affairs through these centralized exams. Only one who would benfit are Hindi-ans.
Malayalis in Kerala cannot write exam in Malayalam but others can write in their mother tongue. How many Malayali doctors lost?
Examinatio preparation notes are in Hindi and English only. How many non-Hindi people lost and how many less qualified Hindi-ans become doctors?
Whenever Indian gov takes power, only Hindi-ans benefit and others lose.

Kerala school suspends four teachers for forcing student to remove bra for NEET exam
The Tisk English Medium School in Kannur, under fire for taking the ‘dress code’ too far during the NEET exam on Sunday, has suspended four women teachers for the fiasco. The teachers were reportedly suspended for a month for forcing a student to remove her bra before going into the exam hall, because the metal detector beeped because of the hooks in her bra.
This move comes a day after the principal of the school tried to deny that any such incident took place. “We have clear instructions that if a metal detector beeps, no one should be allowed inside. The incident of students being asked to remove their innerwear hasn't taken place. I don't know where this is coming from. I have called a meeting with those involved in the frisking arrangements at the school,” Jalaluddin reportedly said.
18-year-old Anitha*, a native of Kerala's Kannur district, spoke to TNM after the insensitive body search and diktat of the examiners about how this affected her confidence ahead of the exam.
"When I walked through the metal detector, it beeped. I told them that it was my bra-strap that had a metal hook on it, but they refused to let me in. They insisted that I remove it. Although I argued with them that the rules does not mention anything about innerwear, they refused to hear my pleas. Then I went to one side of the room, removed my bra and handed it over to my mother who was standing outside the gate. As I entered the
exam hall to write the test, I had little confidence left in me," Anitha said.
According to the NEET exam rules, ‘metal objects’ are not allowed inside the examination hall. But to disallow a student to wear a bra on that basis has been questioned by several people. Anitha’s mother, a teacher by profession, asked, “How can they ask an 18-year-old girl to remove her bra just ahead of appearing for a test? What common sense is this?”

Why the side effects of NEET are much more damaging than the disease it claims to cure
The common entrance exam may spell doom for the majority of medical aspirants and state boards.
The Supreme Court of India has revived the spectre of a common entrance examination for all medical colleges. Ostensibly, the National Eligibility Entrance Test is aimed at creating a level playing field. However, many fear that the effect will be exactly the opposite, as demonstrated by widespread protests, rail-rokos and even clashes with police across many non-Hindi states including Assam, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Kerala, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, among others. There has been vehement opposition from students, doctors (especially rural doctors associations and state units of the Indian Medical Association), parents, non-commercial educationists, political parties and even social justice organisations. The governments of non-Hindi states have also opposed the move.
The overarching fear is that NEET will provide a huge advantage to students of Delhi-headquartered boards such as the Central Board of Secondary Education. Students from these boards also tend to be more urban, upper caste, rich and less likely to be from non-Hindi states, apart from the principal language of non-Hindi states not being their first language.
In short, they will be unrepresentative in a way that will deepen already existing inequities which exist along various axes of class, caste, language, location and rootedness, among others. In addition, many fear that the common medical entrance exam will destroy prestigious state boards as we know them.
