The inception of the National Exit Test (NEXT) underscores an unwavering commitment to upholding uncompromised quality standards within the medical field.
Evidently, the 88-year-old Medical Council of India (MCI) had been marred by widespread corruption. Substantial evidence pointed towards officials engaging in illicit activities in collaboration with political figures. Furthermore, inconsistencies prevailed in the process of inducting new members into the medical community.

Moreover, a notable gap existed in quality assessment for a significant portion of the medical workforce entering the Indian healthcare sector.
