Man stands upside down in TN to protest against NEET

Opposing the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test, a man today did handstand for sometime in the Collectorate here alleging that it will hurt the interests of students.
Kolanjiyappan, who claimed to be a teacher in a private school got into the handstand position and rested his legs against a wall and remained in that posture for sometime at the Collectorate premises.
When asked by police and journalists, he said he was resorting to handstand to register his protest against NEET. He said,"NEET will hurt students and the rural poor and the exam must not be forced upon them."
A senior district official told PTI that the man moved out of the premises after his protest.

Tamil Nadu is opposing NEET and recently, the State Assembly adopted two bills facilitating continuation of the present system of admitting students to medical colleges on the basis of 12th standard marks.
