Rajya Sabha MP Ritabrata Banerjee’s supplementary question on the rationale behind the government’s decision to continue with pen-and-paper examinations for NEET and others despite committee recommendations to conduct in the online mode and initiatives to safeguard the process against potential malpractices

Sir, despite the recommendation for online examinations by the Radhakrishnan Committee, the Government has decided to continue with the pen and paper mode for NEET UG 2025. I want to know this from the Government, through you, Sir. Could the Ministry elaborate on the rationale behind this decision and outline any interim measures being adopted to safeguard the examination process against potential malpractices?
