A large number of students, parents, youth, and ordinary citizens participated in the demonstration.
Protesters carried placards and banners, registering their opposition against the central government and the concerned examination agencies.
Speakers addressing the gathering said that repeated paper leaks and irregularities in an examination as critical as NEET amounted to playing with the futures of millions of hardworking students across the country.
They said it was deeply unfortunate that students were denied a fair examination despite years of rigorous preparation.
The Jamshedpur unit of AAP demanded a fair and high-level inquiry into the entire matter.
The party also demanded stringent action against those found guilty.

The matter had reached the Supreme Court of India, which had ordered a probe and questioned the functioning of the NTA.
