NEET Exam Chaos in Kolhapur District; Parents Allege Detriment to Students
Kolhapur: During the nationwide NEET 2026 examination, serious irregularities have come to light in Kolhapur district, prompting complaints from parents who allege that these lapses have caused harm to the students.
At an examination center in Ichalkaranji, an incident occurred where a student, who had stepped out to fetch a water bottle, was subsequently denied re-entry. Outrage is mounting over the fact that the student was refused admission even after having successfully completed the biometric verification process.
Furthermore, parents have complained that at several centers in Kolhapur, students lost approximately 10 minutes of their time due to the inspection and frisking procedures. Parents argue that, given every single minute is crucial during an examination, such procedural flaws have undoubtedly put the students at a disadvantage.
The examination was conducted across a total of 13 centers within the district, with over 6,000 students participating. Meanwhile, experts opine that although the question paper was of a 'moderate' difficulty level, it was notably lengthy and time-consuming. The Physics section, in particular, was reported to be challenging.
These incidents have cast a shadow of doubt over the transparency of the examination process, leading to demands that the concerned authorities conduct a thorough inquiry into the matter and ensure that justice is served to the students.
