The Factual report submitted by the Superintendent of the Army Public School exam centre states that around 936 candidates appeared for the NEET 2022 exams, out of which 238 c candidates were from Hindi medium and the rest from English medium. The matter was brought to notice when Hindi medium candidates complained of the OMR sheet being in English. The matter was taken care of immediately but some of the OMR sheets were replaced with photocopied sheets, and so the candidates from the particular exam centre should be asked for re-examination.
As soon as the matter of the mix-up got out, the law enforcement and faculty members had to stand up to keep the matter under control. They had to stay till late Sunday evening to hold the peace. SDO, Sriganganagr, Manoj Kumar Meena also reached the spot to take control of the matter. The officials at the exam centre called the NTA with the matter that it cannot be resolved anymore since it was already too late and suggested a re-examination only for the exam centre code 392501 to be conducted.
