Pappu Yadav, a Bihar MP, donned a “Re-NEET” T-shirt when he took the oath of office in the Lok Sabha in New Delhi.
On Tuesday, June 25, independent Bihar MP Rajesh Ranjan, also referred to as Pappu Yadav, took the oath of office as a member of the 18th Lok Sabha while sporting a T-shirt bearing the hashtag “#RENEET.” He questioned why no re-examination has been arranged in the wake of the examinations’ cancellation, criticizing the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Centre over the NEET-UG exam controversy.
“Pranam Purnia, Pranam Bihar, Salam Bihar, Johar Bihar,” was how Yadav began his oath. He ended it with slogans calling for a reexamination of the NEET-UG and special category status for Bihar.
The Purnia, Bihar, MP Kiren Rijiju of the BJP objected to his slogans, stating, “I am a six-time MP.” Will you instruct me? On the compassion of others, you have triumphed. I battle by myself.
Later, Ranjan informed reporters that while members were praising the gods, engaging in sycophancy, and taking the names of their leaders, no one was bringing up the children.
Who is going to discuss the youth? No one brought up NEET, Bihar’s special position, or the state’s progress. I said as much.Re-NEET, I said. Pappu Yadav declared, “The people of Bihar have faith in me, and I will not let them down.”
“Nobody even brought up the paper leak during the Lok Sabha session,” he continued. The nation’s youth, inflation, students, and impoverished have nothing to do with them (the central government).
Yadav posted on his official X feed, saying, “Greetings and salutations to Purnia! The swearing-in marks the beginning of legislative life, and the change has started.
“The goal is the Purnia model, which incorporates justice and service in Bihar and becomes the model of development politics,” he continued.
Due to purported flaws in its administration, the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET-UG) for MBBS/BDS and other medical degrees has become entangled in controversy.
67 applicants in all received a flawless score of 720 out of 720. This sparked worries and led to demonstrations around the nation.
Subsequently, the Ministry of Education established a seven-member group under the direction of Dr. K Radhakrishnan, the former chairman of ISRO, to offer suggestions about changes to the examination process mechanism, enhancements to data security measures, and the operation of the NTA.
Within the following two months, the high-level committee will deliver its report to the minister.
