New Delhi, Jul 24 (IBNS): Union Minister JP Nadda assured parliamentarians on Monday that the government will look into issue of anomalies in conducting the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) examination for entry into medical courses, according to media reports.

On Monday, Rajya Sabha MPs from the Trinamool Congress Party and the AIADMK raised the various issues related to NEET as observed in their respective states, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu.

The MPs alleged that different sets of question papers were being given to students who were answering the common medical entrance examination in regional languages, media reported.

The media quoted Derek O'Brien (TMC) as saying that 40,000 of the 56,000 students who wrote the exam in Bengali or Tamil had "disastrous" results.

Last week, Tamil Nadu's ministers D Jayakumar, C Ve Shanmugam, K P Anbalagan and C Vijaya Basker, and Lok Sabha Deputy Speaker M Thambidurai even met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi to voice their concern against anomalies in NEET examination, media reported.
