The CBSE and NEET Storm: How Two Exams Shook India in 2026

The summer of 2026 broke two of India's most trusted examination systems at once. The CBSE rolled out On Screen Marking for 17 lakh Class 12 students and watched it collapse into wrong answer sheets, blurred scans, and the lowest pass percentage in seven years. The NEET-UG paper leaked ten days before exam day, the test was cancelled, and the CBI began arresting an organised network of professors and coaching teachers stretching from Pune to Latur. Both crises landed at the same address: the Union Ministry of Education, headed by Dharmendra Pradhan. In this episode of Nelson John 360, we walk through every angle of the story, the OSM tender that handed a multi-crore contract to Coempt EduTeck, a firm previously known as Globarena Technologies and tied to past examination disasters in Telangana, the teenagers who turned investigators and exposed the security gaps themselves, the CBI's arrests in the NEET leak, the political demands for the minister's resignation, the Supreme Court's pending hearings on the National Testing Agency, and the human cost behind every percentage point. No sides taken, no spin, just the full 360 on what happened, what's contested, and what comes next. #CBSEOSM #NEET2026 #NelsonJohn360 #IndiaEducation #ExamCrisis #DharmendraPradhan #NEETLeak

Is India's Tech Dream Ending? What Oracle's Layoffs Really Mean

On March 31, 2026, Oracle executed the largest layoff in its 48-year history. Up to 30,000 employees worldwide were terminated via a five-line email at 6 AM. India was the hardest hit, losing an estimated 12,000 workers 40% of Oracle’s Indian workforce in a single day. Engineers, architects, senior managers, and 20-year veterans were all let go. Performance was not a factor. In this episode, Nelson John unpacks the financial logic behind Oracle’s decision: $58 billion in new debt, a $156 billion AI infrastructure commitment, a stock that’s lost half its value, and a company that still managed to post $6.13 billion in quarterly profit. We explore what this means for India’s five million strong IT sector, why the traditional outsourcing model is under threat, and how the AI economy is reshaping who gets hired, who gets fired, and who gets left behind.
