Even 0.001% Negligence in NEET will not be accepted- SC

The Supreme Court on Monday asked the central government and the National Testing Agency (NTA) not to admit any errors in the conduct of this year's National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), warning that even 0.001% lapses must be dealt with thoroughly. This highlights the chaos in India's most important medical entrance exam, which could jeopardize the future of lakhs of children.

A vacation bench of Justices Vikram Nath and SVN Bhati was hearing a petition by 32 candidates seeking cancellation of the May 5 exam citing allegations of document leaks, cheating, manipulation in exam centres and discrepancies in declaration of results.

The court issued the notice and published it on July 8 along with a host of similar petitions on the issue.

"We all know how much effort our children have put in for this exam. We have to be firm." "If mistakes have been made, they must say they have admitted to the mistake as it builds confidence in the system. It should not be construed as a controversial case," the court said. "Even if there is 0.001% negligence on the part of anyone, it needs to be thoroughly investigated," the court told central government advocate Kanu Agarwal and NTA's Vardhaman Kaushik. Protests have been going on across India for weeks, with thousands of students taking to the streets in opposition to the trial this year. They are accused of leaking exam papers, inflating grades and awarding marks arbitrarily, even as the opposition has demanded a Supreme Court-supervised investigation into the allegations. "Prime Minister Narendra Modi has remained silent as usual about manipulating the future of over 2.4 million students in the NEET exam," senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said in a post on X in Hindi.

The government has repeatedly said it will not tolerate cheating or misconduct, but has also ruled out scrapping the entire exam over alleged problems at some centres. India's Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said Sunday that initial information indicated some students had received remediation due to lack of time. "... cheating has come to light in two places. I assure students and parents that the government is taking this matter seriously. We have received information and will follow up on all issues at the critical time," Pradhan said.                                                                                               

Vladimir Putin visits North Korea first time in 24 years

Vladimir Putin visits North Korea first time in 24 years

 

All eyes are on Russian President Vladimir Putin, who will be visiting North Korea for the first time in 24 years.

Before leaving for a summit with North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un, Russian President Vladimir Putin thanked the country for supporting his actions in Ukraine and promised "close cooperation" to overcome Western sanctions.

Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly arrived in North Korea today (June 18) for his first official visit to the East Asian country in 24 years.

The visit comes after North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un extended an invitation to Putin in September 2023. Putin last visited Pyongyang in July 2000, and the schedule highlights the burgeoning cooperation with Russia, also a nuclear power, since the invasion of Ukraine.

Kim has previously visited Russia by train twice. One in 2019 and again in 2023, where the duo were photographed toasting each other over Russian wine.

Putin will visit Vietnam on June 19-20 after concluding his North Korean visit, as per the Kremlin. In an earlier repot, Putin's foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov indicated the two countries may pursue a partnership agreement that would encompass security issues.

Ushakov said the deal would not be directed against any other country, but would “outline prospects for further cooperation, and will be signed taking into account what has happened between our countries in recent years — in the field of international politics, in the field of economics ... including, of course, taking into account security issues.”

In an op-ed piece in North Korean state media hours before he landed, Putin said Russia and North Korea would continue to “resolutely oppose” what he described as Western ambitions “to hinder the establishment of a multipolarized world order based on mutual respect for justice.”

Putin also said Russia and North Korea will develop trade and payment systems “that are not controlled by the West” and jointly oppose sanctions against the countries, which he described as “unilateral and illegal restrictive measures.”

India possesses more nuclear weapons than Pakistan

 

According to the SIPRI report, China's nuclear arsenal has grown from 410 in January 2023 to 500 in January 2024 and is expected to continue to grow. India has more nuclear weapons than Pakistan, while China has expanded its nuclear warhead count from 410 in January 2023 to 500 in January 2024, according to a Monday report from the Swedish think tank Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI).

SIPRI said in its analysis that China's nuclear arsenal has grown from 410 in January 2023 to 500 in January 2024 and is expected to continue to grow.

Key Findings from the SIPRI Report

Nine nuclear-armed states, including the United States, Russia, Britain, France, China, India, Pakistan, North Korea and Israel, continue to modernize their nuclear arsenals, and several of them plan to deploy new nuclear-capable weapon systems by 2023.

As of January this year, India had "stockpiled" 172 nuclear warheads, while Pakistan had 170.

India expanded its nuclear arsenal slightly in 2023. Both India and Pakistan continue to develop new nuclear delivery systems in 2023.

The SIPRI report noted that while Pakistan remains the primary focus of India's nuclear deterrent, India appears to be increasingly placing emphasis on long-range weapons, including weapons capable of reaching targets across China.

About 2,100 of its deployed ballistic missile warheads are on high alert, nearly all of which are Russian or U.S.; however, for the first time, China is believed to be retaining some warheads on high alert.

Russia and the United States together possess nearly 90% of all nuclear weapons. The regulator added that Russia is estimated to have deployed about 36 more warheads than it did in January 2023.

The report said China's nuclear warhead stockpile is still likely far smaller than those of Russia and the United States.
