Government needs to give up all-India examination: Chidambaram on row over NEET-UG

Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram called for the central government to relinquish all-India exams like NEET-UG, advocating for states to oversee medical college admissions. Amid NEET-UG 2024 controversies including cheating, he urged Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation over system leaks. Chidambaram criticised the new criminal laws, questioning extensive rewrites, and addressed BJP's allegations against Rahul Gandhi for purportedly insulting Hindus, asserting the need for a secular nation.
