Anand Kumar, founder of Super 30, demanded that National Testing Agency Director General Abhishek Singh be held accountable for leaked exam papers.
The demand follows the cancellation of the NEET-UG exam for 2026 [1]. This incident raises critical questions about the integrity of India's medical entrance process and the security of high-stakes testing systems.
Kumar said that if the exam fails, the leadership of the agency must be answerable [2]. He called for the implementation of stricter anti-cheating measures to prevent future breaches of exam security.
As part of his proposal for reform, Kumar suggested that India adopt rigorous standards similar to those seen in other nations. He specifically referenced China's approach to educational regulation, noting that China introduced its "Double Reduction" policy in 2021 [1].
The breach of the NEET-UG papers has compromised the fairness of the competition for thousands of aspiring medical students. Kumar said the NTA must ensure that the agency responsible for the administration of the test answers for the failure to secure the documents.
Abhishek Singh remains the head of the NTA as the agency navigates the fallout of the 2026 cancellation [1]. The call for accountability comes amid growing public frustration over recurring leaks in national-level examinations.
“"If Exam Fails, You Must Be Answerable"”
The public confrontation between a prominent educator and the NTA leadership highlights a systemic crisis in India's standardized testing infrastructure. By citing China's 2021 policy changes, Kumar is advocating for a shift from mere administration to a more regulated, state-controlled oversight mechanism to eliminate the profit motive behind exam leaks.
