    FEKUs NIKAMMA govt cant even do 1 test without scams uggh!24 lakh of students answered NEET, they'd studied hearts out.. it takes months of preparation.. huge sacrifices.. & good deal of money. We've lost scores of bright aspiring doctors because of feku's callousness. But this scam ridden, criminal RSS-BJP govt is so careless ,so insensitive without a care just does eyewash by removing an officer!! in chaiwallah's Godra, Gujrat massive scam unearthed where students submit blank answer sheets then it'll be filled by expert!! for which student has to pay in lakhs!. This how metric failed VISWAGURU wants to create doctors! story of other entrance tests also more less same. all this scam was chaiwallah's creation. He & RSS-BJP wanted everything to centralize. Then it'd be easy to leak the paper to selected coaching centers(which pay crores to RSS-BJP).THIS WHOLE SCAM was & is fekus idea. just like de-monit scam.

    PM's graduation certificate isi aadmi ne banaya hai lagta hai. Now the issue is in foreign countries Indian graduation certificates will be questionable. Definitely they will come out with new policy for certificate verification.

    This gentleman by virtue of his high position had very high accountability, which cannot at all be justified by just removing him from the chair; further thorough and transperent investigation needs to be done, in our larger interests of the lacs of students and the newer future aspirants, to get into the root of this scam, and expose all the bigger fishes involved or it will leave a big indelible question mark on the quality of our higher education!! Please note that this is a very personal opinion based on information available in the public domain and my perception; kindly do not believe in anybody's personal opinion; please always do your own research and analysis 🤔🙏🙏
