This makes it similar to any other Residential Flats Association!@NTA_Exams is one of the world’s largest testing agencies, capable of conducting three lakh tests daily. Nearly 13 million students have registered for exams through this agency. The Union Cabinet has approved an initial funding of ₹25 crore for the agency’s operations in the first year and ₹35 crore for 2023. The agency is financed by the Department of Higher Education of the Ministry of Education.NTA was registered in 2018 under the Societies Registration Act. It claims to be an autonomous and self-sufficient testing organisation under the Education Ministry. A ten-member governing body leads the NTA and does not have a general body. Interestingly, no parliamentary act governs it and is also not subject to the rules governing government employees’ conduct.

@NTA_Exams is one of the world’s largest testing agencies, capable of conducting three lakh tests daily. Nearly 13 million students have registered for exams through this agency. The Union Cabinet has approved an initial funding of ₹25 crore for the agency’s operations in the first year and ₹35 crore for 2023. The agency is financed by the Department of Higher Education of the Ministry of Education.
NTA was registered in 2018 under the Societies Registration Act. It claims to be an autonomous and self-sufficient testing organisation under the Education Ministry. A ten-member governing body leads the NTA and does not have a general body. Interestingly, no parliamentary act governs it and is also not subject to the rules governing government employees’ conduct.
The UPSC, which conducts civil service exams, was established through the Government of India Act of 1935. The NTA took over in 2018, but allegations of irregularities and misconduct have marred 12 examinations conducted by the agency. Complaints about such issues have persisted since its establishment, including the recent exposure of illegalities in NEET and UGC-NET.
During the last decade, from 2014 to 2024, the BJP-led government passed 427 bills in the Lok Sabha and 365 bills in the Rajya Sabha, including the controversial three farm laws. However, the Union government did not show any interest in introducing legislation to provide statutory backing for @NTA_Exams concerning the interest of students. This lack of legislation may allow @NTA_Exams to avoid accountability and face no consequences for corruption or illegal activities.
Can the millions of young candidates who have placed their trust in the exams since 2018 be taken advantage of and see their innocent lives ruined by this unregulated and unaccountable organization?
What answer does Hon’ble @dpradhanbjp have for these questions?
