Discrepancies in NTA finances trigger privilege motion

Discrepancies in NTA finances trigger privilege motion

There's a big problem in India's Parliament.

The government gave two different sets of numbers about the money the National Testing Agency (NTA) makes and spends.

This happened when two different MPs asked about it.

One MP, V. Sivadasan, is very upset and says the government is lying.

He thinks this is a big deal because Parliament should get the right information.

Another person, Abha Dev Habib, agrees and says the government is making Parliament look silly.

The NTA runs important exams like NEET, and it's supposed to have 39 permanent workers, but Sivadasan says there are none, only 24 people temporarily working there.

The government says they will look into it.
