The Indian National Congress has raised concerns over alleged irregularities in the Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MH-CET) conducted last year. The party has formally demanded a probe into the matter, citing discrepancies that may have affected the fairness of the examination process.
According to Congress leaders, the irregularities include potential leaks of question papers and discrepancies in the evaluation of answer sheets. They have urged the state government to appoint an independent committee to investigate the allegations and ensure accountability.
The MH-CET is a crucial entrance exam for admissions to engineering, pharmacy, and other professional courses in Maharashtra. Any compromise in its integrity could impact thousands of students seeking higher education.
As of now, the Maharashtra government has not officially responded to the demand for a probe. The Congress party has stated that it will pursue the matter further if no action is taken.
