It’s not about a leak or a scandal; it’s about something deeper: the entire system is broken. Courts are demanding that NTA, the agency behind NEET, JEE, and others, be rebuilt from the ground up; not with quick fixes, but as a permanent, tech-savvy institution like UPSC. Why? Because right now, exams are run by rotating staff, with no institutional memory. One officer leaves, and all the experience walks out the door. That’s why leaks keep happening. The court wants 16 specialized teams; cybersecurity, AI translation, database security; built inside NTA. And they’ve given the Centre just 3 weeks to show real progress. This isn’t just about exams. It’s about justice for crores of students who’ve been failed by a temporary system handling lifelong dreams.
