Long before the NTA paper leak row, why did states oppose NEET?
The State Platform for Common School System‑Tamil Nadu (SPCSS‑TN) has asked the Centre’s High‑Powered Task Force to scrap the National Testing Agency and all centralised undergraduate entrance exams, insisting on board‑exam marks for medical admissions. The demand reflects long‑standing opposition to a national medical entrance test that dates back to proposals in 2010 and precedes the creation of the NTA.
