💨 Abstract

Assam's CM Himanta Biswa Sarma has requested the Central government to implement biometric verification of NEET candidates to prevent malpractices. This follows a police investigation that found abnormal scores from private exam centers in the state. The government proposed using Aadhaar-based biometrics at government or aided colleges, with additional measures such as CCTV coverage, thorough frisking, and senior civil service and police oversight.
