NTA Still Has No Chairman — Over a Year After the Exam Paper Leak Scandal, the Top Seat Stays Empty
NTA's Chairmanship has remained vacant since 2024 following the paper leak controversy; the DG continues to hold dual charge.
The National Testing Agency continues to operate without a permanent Chairman, a vacancy that has persisted since 2024 when the then-incumbent stepped down amid a high-profile paper leak controversy. In the absence of a designated head, the Director General of the NTA has been shouldering the responsibilities of both roles, a dual arrangement that observers say underscores the urgency of a formal appointment. The prolonged vacuum at the helm of the country's central examination body has renewed calls for a swift resolution to restore institutional credibility.
