The Federation of Resident Doctors' Association (FORDA) has petitioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi, demanding strict repercussions for those implicated in the alleged leak of NEET-UG 2026's exam paper and advocating for a shift to a computer-based test system.

Following the NEET-UG examination held on May 3, accusations of paper leaks prompted an investigation by Rajasthan Police's Special Operations Group. Consequently, the National Testing Agency annulled the test and pledged a retest, prioritizing transparency and trust in national assessments.

FORDA, criticizing the leak as a 'moral and institutional catastrophe,' pointed out persistent systemic failures in national exams. It called for stringent penalties and systemic reforms, suggesting a move to a computer-based model like IIT-JEE Advanced for better integrity.
