Medical Council Calls for Probe into Bihar MBBS Exam Leak

India's National Medical Commission (NMC) has announced that it will launch an inquiry into the alleged leak of the Bihar MBBS entrance examination. The regulator said that the integrity of the exam process is paramount and that any breach could undermine public confidence in medical education. The NMC will work with the Bihar State Medical Council and other authorities to identify how the exam paper or answer key may have been compromised. If misconduct is proven, the regulator said it could impose penalties on the involved parties and take steps to prevent future incidents. The call for an investigation highlights the importance of safeguarding the fairness of medical entrance tests across the country.
