Not to fall prey to unscruplous elements
National Testing Agency (NTA) has clarified that its role is restricted only to conducting the NEET exam.
The clarification comes out as many students have complained to NTA that a few people posing as their staff have called them saying they can arrange admission in the desired medical college by manipulating the OMR sheet of the candidate.
Sources say, students who have written 2020 NTA NEET exam have received such calls and NTA said they are fake persons and requested the students not to fall prey to such elements.
NTA in a notification clarified the role of it is restricted to mere conducting of 2020 NTA NEET exam. It is invites applications for the test, conducts it and declares the result.
Post result declaration, the details of the result including that of rank holders are handed over to Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) which comes under Ministry of Health and Family Welfare of Government of India.
The rest of the admission process for medical admission is not handled by it, said NTA sources.
NTA also does not have access to phone number or email of the candidates. Hence the question of association of officials of NTA with any such unscruplous elements does not arise.
Any communication regarding the score card or rank card with regards to NEET exam will be done through the official website of the exam ‘www.nta.ac.in’ or ‘ntaneet.ac.in’ only.
NTA further said candidates who have written 2020 NTA NEET exam can visit the above mentioned official websites to have any information about the results.
Admission into medical colleges takes place on the basis of the ranks obtained by candidates and counselling conducted by DGHS for seats under 15% All India Quota Central Universitiies and the State Counselling Authorities (Directorates of Medical Education of respective states/UTs) and not based on forged OMR sheet or score card of any candidate.
NTA has also lodged a complaint with local police in connection with the unscruplous elements.
It requested even the candidates and their parents also to complain to local police authorities if they receive calls from such fraudsters.
Candidates and their parents can also inform NTA about the unscruplous elements to their email ‘grivance@nta.ac.in’
