NEET- National Testing Agency Bound To Scrupulously Enforce Specific Relaxations For Persons With Disability: Supreme Court

Live Law  

"The NTA must remember that all authority under the law is subject to responsibility and above all to a sense of accountability. As an examining body, the NTA was bound to scrupulously enforce the guidelines for the examination which provide for specific relaxations for persons with disability", ruled the Supreme Court on Tuesday. The first respondent is governed by the rule of law and observing fairness; behind the abstract number of 15 lakh lie human lives which can be altered due to the inadvertent yet significant errors. As an examining body, the NTA was bound to scrupulously enforce the guidelines for the examination which provide for specific relaxations for persons with disability. The Supreme Court on Thursday orally told the NTA that its brochure for NEET must carry a segment on candidates with disabilities, enumerating the specific benefits available for them by way of an advance disclosure, and that there must be proper training to the invigilators to ensure these benefits are implemented on the ground.
