NEET 2022 results: Student commits suicide after failing to clear exam

In a tragic incident, a Tamil Nadu NEET 2022 female candidate was found hanging at her residence after the NEET 2022 results were declared at night on September 7.

After the incident, Rahul Gandhi during his Bharat Jodo Yatra met the family members of the candidate who killed herself after failing to clear the NEET entrance exam. Her parents have been fighting for abolishing NEET exams.

The state has been trying to get the President’s assent for the state’s Bill on the exemption from NEET. Tamil Nadu Health and Family Welfare Minister Ma. Subramanian in his visit to Delhi a few days ago has once again urged the Union government to get the President’s assent for the state’s bill. As per the state government, the entrance exam favours students from affluent backgrounds and poor candidates have little scope to get admission through NEET. Moreover, in a few years, many news of such suicide cases comes to light from the state where students committed suicide when they were unable to clear the NEET exam.
