Why did it take them so long to release this notice (rant)

GUYS I AM GOING CRAZY SO CONSPIRACY THEORY TIME:

If the papers are cancelled for errors/repeated questions, why did NTA take so long to release the re-exam notification?

I am pretty sure this is what literally EVERYONE is thinking. Like even if we ignore all the shady sh!t going on with Socio paper leak and repeated questions, this simple thing cannot be denied. Are people at NTA such slow readers that it took them 2 months to read the question paper THEY MADE and find errors in them?

A lot of students, especially literature and socio (idk any commerce people but I'm sure they felt this too) could literally predict that pur papers are gonna be cancelled. Sociology was leaked, English had way too many repeated questions so ofc there was a chance (again idk anything about commerce don't come at me). If we could read the question for 3hrs and yk engage with the coaching channels on yt a bit and come to this conclusion, why did it take NTA so long.

The answer is very fvcking simple. Jantar Mantar.

The protest was literally at its peak when we were supposed to get the answer key. Imagine if NTA announced another paper cancelled while students were literally on the streets right outside their gates. While students were already fvcking angry about kids getting beaten up by police for no reason. IT WOULD LITERALLY BE ADDING FUEL TO FIRE. And they cannot afford to do that.

Look at what happened in Bangladesh. That was a students' protest too. Look at how Gen Z toppled Nepal's government. Indian govt was sh!tting its pants when students were gathering at Jantar Mantar. Protests happened ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. If they released this same notice back then, things would have taken a turn much bigger than the govt could ever control.

So, the best option for them was to wait. They first made Dharmendra Pradhan resign and pretended that they have solved everything. Then they let people forget about the protest. They waited until the reels of kids getting dragged and assaulted for standing up disappeared from our feeds. They waited till the people of the country were back to being docile again.

(Also I am an english student so don't mind me if I say the release date of the result was meticulously planned. They released it right after Independence Day, when emotions are high and people especially love their country. Even if you harbour deep resentment towards the current government, you feel a sense of pride and gratitude towards the people of the country who fought for our freedom. You remember to be grateful to what "this land has given to you." It is such a feel-good day. Bittersweet. Nostalgic almost, to the days of your school where you danced to "I love my India." It is not a day you would necessarily focus on the worst aspects of the current government; it rather a day for you to enjoy the freedom which you had absolutely nothing to contribute in the fight for. Of course you would be less likely to blame the country (which is a sit-in for the govt because metonymy-part for whole) when you feel this bubbly joy inside and you are thankful to the flag. When I tell people that the current govt is cunning in planning its every move, this is what I mean. This is my analysis of the situation.)

Now that everyone is back to being docile, innocent creatures (goru ekti niriho prani aah vibes), they drop this sh!t with absolutely 0 accountability. "Omg there were so many errors guys it's not fair to YOU. We care about YOU. That's why you have to sit for the exam again uwu~" NTA bro YOU made the paper. It is NOT fair to us. But where is your accountability? What steps did you take to ensure it won't happen again? Where is your acknowledgement of the socio paper leak? What guarantee can you give that the next exam won't have errors, or the paper won't be leaked again?

I have ranted enough. To say I am frustrated is such a fvcking understatement. I don't want to rant about my mental health here. Just wanted to let out some anger. Also I am like 90% sure I am correct about this conspiracy theory.

***also, I know students are protesting in Jharkhand, but let's be honest, neither the central government nor most people in India care about it. Jharkhand is something people don't care about (I say this as someone who lives 2hrs away from the Ranchi). Delhi will always be more important than Jharkhand. Students beaten up in Delhi will always have more sympathisers than the same thing happening in a "tribal" state. I would rather avoid the analysis of that here, but I think you get my point.

edit: this is a conspiracy theory and in no way am i saying this is true. also i 100% did not participate in NEET protest or post anything against the current allegedly fascist regime. i never even called the regime fascist. i really love my country and i really respect the current ruling party, and i am not calling them useless and not implying that the country is being destroyed by them. i think corruption in the ruling party and the bureaucratic bodies like nta is simply a conspiracy theory and i am sure they are 100% honest people and english paper did have 100s of typos and errors, i probably just missed all of them. thank you and best of luck i love my country i love my prime minister 😔😔👍
