Lead Story
In its biggest overhaul since the NEET controversy, the Centre has removed 47 officials of the National Testing Agency (NTA), signalling a sweeping clean-up of India's premier examination body. The move is part of a broader effort to strengthen exam security, tighten anti-paper leak laws and restore public confidence in high-stakes entrance examinations.
The action follows months of scrutiny over the conduct of national entrance exams, particularly after the NEET row exposed serious concerns over examination integrity and administration. More action is likely as ongoing inquiries fix accountability. Alongside the administrative shake-up, the NTA has launched a recruitment drive to induct domain experts. It is hiring General Managers and 16 Young Professionals with expertise in cybersecurity, psychometrics, assessment research, forensic investigation, technology and examination operations to modernise the agency and strengthen its security architecture.
