The Supreme Court of India said the National Testing Agency had not learnt from the earlier NEET leak. It sought a reply from the Centre, NTA and the Central Bureau of Investigation on pleas seeking an autonomous body.
The Supreme Court criticised the Centre for failing to hold regular meetings on issues faced by North East Indians and called its approach careless. The Court also raised concern over ongoing racial discrimination and lack of sensitivity, keeping the matter pending for strict compliance.
The Supreme Court criticised a petition seeking to return captive elephants from Gujarat’s Vantara rescue centre, calling it “completely vague” and directing the petitioner to add Vantara as a party. The case will be heard next on August 25.
