Viral Video Shows Multiple Coaching Centres Claiming Credit For NEET UG Topper's Success
A video circulating on social media is raising eyebrows regarding the NEET UG 2025 topper, Keshav Mittal, with multiple coaching centres claiming him as their own. The video highlights how prominent institutes like Allen, Motion NEET, and Narayana have each allegedly declared Mittal as a student who achieved All India Rank (AIR) 7 in the NEET UG 2025 exam. Watch the video here: स्कैम नहीं प्यार है कोचिंग वालों का केशव के लिए — राजस्थानी ट्वीट (@8PMnoCM) June 19, 2025 The claims have stirred online debate, prompting netizens to express scepticism and amusement. Keshav Mittal, a 17-year-old from Punjab's Barnala district, secured AIR 7 with a score of 680 out of 720 in his first attempt at the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) UG. He is also the top scorer from Punjab. The National Testing Agency (NTA) announced the NEET UG 2025 results on June 14, with over 22.7 lakh candidates participating in the highly competitive medical entrance exam. Another social media post echoes the same allegation, tagging various media outlets for verification. The caption reads: "#NEET2025 One student at #AIR7 KESHAV MITTAL is being claimed by @allenkota, @MotionKota & @narayanacoach - three different coaching institutes. Can someone verify?" The conflicting claims by coaching centres have raised questions about the accuracy and ethics of promotional strategies in the competitive test preparation industry. "Only Keshav can answer this question, and in the era of social media, it is possible to answer it," wrote one user. Explaining the situation One user wrote that "this student was a regular classroom student in one coaching, and he had joined the test series in another coaching centre."

Plaint filed over misrepresentation of NEET UG results
Mangaluru: The National Pre University Students, Parents and Teachers Association has filed a written complaint with the department of higher education and the National Test Agency (NTA) regarding alleged tampering of the NTA NEET UG 2025 result, misrepresentation, and misuse for self-promotion of a candidate in Udupi. The candidate in question is the son of a senior state govt official working in Udupi. The alleged tampering of the NEET-2025 results sheet went viral on social media. Mithesh Kumar Moodukonaje, secretary of NPUSPTA, in his letter to officials, sought an immediate investigation into the matter involving alleged tampering and falsification of the NEET UG 2025 result declared by the NTA on June 14. He stated that it came to their notice that the candidate from a private PU college in Udupi allegedly tampered with the original NEET UG 2025 scorecard and generated falsified documents to claim higher ranks, including the first rank in Udupi district and eighth rank in Karnataka. It was subsequently published in a leading regional Kannada daily for the purpose of self-promotion and publicity for the coaching institution concerned. After learning about it, NPUSPTA tried to verify the facts. Preliminary scrutiny showed that these scorecards deviate from the standard format of NTA-issued scorecards and that the QR codes on the documents do not link to the official NTA website, raising a strong presumption of forgery and digital fraud under applicable provisions of the Information Technology Act, 2000, and the Indian Penal Code, 1860. Also, they discovered through social media that AIR 107 was allotted to Bhavhya Jayna of Aakash Digital Coaching. Association members also visited the local coaching centre in Udupi and verified the authenticity. The candidate's past academic records from grade 10 to IIPU mark sheets do not correlate reasonably with the high score and rank being claimed, further suggesting fabrication and misrepresentation for undue advantage, they said. The association has demanded a thorough investigation by the NTA and any other competent investigating authority to establish the facts, detect digital fraud, and verify the authenticity of the documents in question. Secondly, they called for the initiation of appropriate criminal and disciplinary proceedings, issuance of a directive to all print, electronic, and online media houses to verify rank/result claims directly with NTA before publishing such information, failing which appropriate penal provisions under existing media and defamation laws may be invoked. They also requested public disclosure by NTA of verified NEET UG results (in compliance with privacy laws and RTI Act norms) to enhance transparency and prevent the recurrence of such fraudulent claims. When TOI contacted the father of the candidate, he denied any wrongdoing from their side and said the mistake was made by the coaching institute their ward attended. "It was downloaded and sent by a coaching institute which had his login credentials. We will file a complaint against them," he maintained.

Born on August 3, 2008, Mahesh has achieved the remarkable feat of securing All India Rank 1 in NEET UG 2025 with an impressive 686 out of 720 marks—and that too, in his very first attempt. NEET Result 2 / 13 What sets Mahesh apart isn't just his academic brilliance but the small yet consistent habits he cultivated daily. The National Testing Agency (NTA) declared the NEET UG result on June 14, 2025, and Mahesh's name has become synonymous with discipline, focus, and self-belief. Let's dive into the top 10 strategies and habits that helped Mahesh Kumar ace one of the toughest entrance exams. Consistent Study without Overconfidence or Under confidence 3 / 13 Mahesh didn't let emotions take control of his preparation. He maintained a balanced mindset, never overestimating his strengths or underestimating his weaknesses. Staying neutral helped him stay on track, regardless of mock test results or peer performance. Regularity 4 / 13 Instead of studying only when he felt like it, Mahesh practiced daily learning rituals. This included revision, solving MCQs, and reading NCERTs consistently—no breaks, no excuses. A Fixed Timetable 5 / 13 A well-structured timetable helped Mahesh stay organised. Every hour of his day was accounted for, ensuring he never wasted time figuring out what to study next. This discipline played a major role in covering the vast NEET syllabus efficiently. Prioritizing Health 6 / 13 While preparing for exams, many students ignore their health—but not Mahesh. He made sure to eat balanced meals, get enough sleep, and take short breaks to avoid burnout. According to him, a healthy body supports a sharp mind. Time Management 7 / 13 Mahesh knew the value of every minute. He dedicated specific time slots to theory, revision, mock tests, and even breaks. His 10-minute focused revision sessions—done multiple times a day—helped retain concepts better. Mock Tests 8 / 13 Mock tests weren't just tests for Mahesh—they were learning tools. He analysed each test thoroughly to understand his mistakes and improve gradually. This habit helped him stay exam-ready well before the actual date. Facing the Language Barrier 9 / 13 Coming from a Hindi background, English was not Mahesh's first language. But instead of letting this stop him, he focused more on understanding concepts and using bilingual study material. He turned a challenge into strength with consistent effort. Smart Revision Techniques 10 / 13 Rather than reading passively, Mahesh used active recall, short quizzes, and summarised notes for revision. His strategy involved revisiting topics at regular intervals to make them stick permanently. Self-Discipline 11 / 13 Mahesh didn't wait for motivation to strike. He followed a strict schedule even when he didn't feel like studying. For him, discipline was more powerful than mood swings. Advice For Future Aspirants 12 / 13 Don't judge yourself based on your first performance. Your job is to revise repeatedly and stick to your schedule. 13 / 13 Mahesh Kumar's journey proves that success is not a result of random effort, but of small, consistent actions taken daily. Whether it's 10 minutes of focused revision, a disciplined routine, or smart time management—every bit adds up. His message to students is simple yet powerful: 'Trust the process, and never stop improving.'
