[National Testing Agency @NTA_Exams]

Reference the issue with regard to allotment of a centre in Abu Dhabi to a candidate in Nagpur, NTA would like to state the following:

Following the rescheduling of NEET (UG) 2026 to 21 June, the National Testing Agency reopened the examination-city correction window to assist candidates.

Key points:

High success rate: Around 3.2 lakh candidates used the correction window, and NTA allotted the preferred examination city to over 99.5% of them.

On the 'Abu Dhabi' query: NTA's web-activity records indicate that the city change in this case was made through the candidate's own registered login during the open correction window, with a consistent single-user access pattern.

Immediate Resolution for
Last-Minute Requests: Despite the Abu Dhabi centre being chosen by the candidate, the NTA received an informal request on the evening of June 19 (just 48 hours before the exam) to change the centre to Nagpur. NTA personnel immediately initiated the change and contacted the candidate's father on 19th evening itself to help them complete the formal process.

NTA has observed that on 3 occasions, one - the centre was changed to Abu Dhabi using candidate’s credentials and twice it was previewed that the centre is Abu Dhabi. Despite that NTA has accorded to aspirant’s request and the change of centre was actioned.

A "Student-First" Approach: The NTA's priority is that no candidate misses the examination over an administrative doubt.

Yesterday was my final day as Director of National Intelligence. I declassified and released never-before-seen documents exposing the truth about Fauci directing millions of US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth. Go to https://t.co/tVwWp0TxZ4 to see for yourself.

US President Donald Trump on Indian Prime Minister @narendramodi:

Modi is very good. He stays out of wars, which is smart. He's 1.5 billion people. India's actually the biggest. Modi's a great leader, and we do a lot of business with them, but now we do fair business.

They used to really rip us off. I don't blame them for that. We had stupid politicians that allowed that to happen.

But now we do a lot of business. They're not that happy about it. They used to do a lot better. But Modi's great.

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

अमेरिका और ईरान के बीच 14 सूत्री इस्लामाबाद समझौता ज्ञापन अब आधिकारिक रूप से जारी कर दिया गया है।

1. सच यह है कि इसे इस्लामाबाद MOU कहा जा रहा है, जो पाकिस्तान की नई क्षेत्रीय हैसियत और वैश्विक प्रभाव को दिखाता है। यह वही पाकिस्तान है, जिसे नवंबर 2008 के मुंबई आतंकी हमलों के बाद डॉ. मनमोहन सिंह ने वैश्विक मंच पर अलग-थलग कर दिया था। यह प्रधानमंत्री मोदी की विदेश नीति की विषयवस्तु और शैली, दोनों के लिए गंभीर झटका है। पाकिस्तान अब पश्चिम एशिया की भू-राजनीतिक और सुरक्षा संरचना में और अधिक गहराई से शामिल हो गया है, जिसके भारत के लिए गंभीर और बड़े निहितार्थ हैं।

2. यदि MOU शब्दों और भावना, दोनों में कायम रहता है, तो यह एक बड़ी प्रगति है। लेकिन इसमें दोनों पक्षों के लिए Memorandum of Misunderstanding बनने की भी संभावना है। फिलहाल इतना ही कहा जा सकता है कि अगले 60 दिन बेहद महत्वपूर्ण होंगे।

3. MOU में ईरान के लिए बहुत महत्वपूर्ण और कुछ अप्रत्याशित लाभ भी हैं। ईरान ने अपना प्रतिरोध और जुझारूपन दिखाया है। GCC देशों ने, जिन्होंने ईरान के जवाबी हमलों का पूरा भार झेला है, सावधानी के साथ MOU का स्वागत किया है, लेकिन वे निस्संदेह दूसरे देशों के साथ अपने संबंधों पर फिर से विचार करेंगे।

4. यह MOU इजराइल के प्रधानमंत्री के लिए निश्चित हार है, हालांकि वे अभी भी इसे अलग-अलग तरीकों से पटरी से उतार सकते हैं। प्रधानमंत्री बेंजामिन नेतन्याहू अंतरराष्ट्रीय स्तर पर अलग-थलग पड़ गए हैं, यहां तक कि राष्ट्रपति ट्रंप ने भी उनके प्रति अपने गुस्से और निराशा को सार्वजनिक रूप से व्यक्त किया है। केवल पीएम मोदी ही इस क्षेत्र में पीएम नेतन्याहू की कार्रवाइयों-जिनमें लेबनान, गाजा और कब्जे वाला वेस्ट बैंक शामिल हैं -के समर्थन में दृढ़ बने हुए हैं। पीएम मोदी की इजराइल के प्रति यह अंधभक्ति हमारे देश को बहुत महंगी पड़ रही है।

5. यह MOU अमेरिका के लिए गंभीर झटका है, जिसने इजराइल के साथ मिलकर 28 फरवरी, 2026 को ईरान के खिलाफ बड़े लक्ष्यों के साथ युद्ध शुरू किया था, जो बिल्कुल भी पूरे नहीं हुए। सैन्य शक्ति की सीमाएं एक बार फिर उजागर हो गई हैं। राष्ट्रपति ट्रंप के प्रति पीएम मोदी का लगातार तुष्टिकरण-जिसका ताजा प्रमाण कल रात हुई ट्रंप-मोदी द्विपक्षीय बैठक पर MEA का बयान- शर्मनाक और वास्तव में राष्ट्र-विरोधी है।

⦿ 3,000 में सिर्फ 1 IAS बनेगा
⦿ 3,000 में सिर्फ 30 IIT में जाएंगे
⦿ 3,000 में सिर्फ 180 डॉक्टर बनेंगे

हिंदुस्तान में 'सलेक्शन सिस्टम' नहीं, 'रिजेक्शन सिस्टम' है।

[Dr. Sangita Reddy @drsangitareddy]

The untimely passing of Jaspal Rana is a stark reminder that heart disease does not always fit the profile we expect.

An Arjuna Awardee, champion shooter, coach, and a symbol of discipline and peak performance, he was someone many would consider the picture of health.

Yet, for several days, the warning signs were present but easy to dismiss. By the time medical attention was sought, a major coronary artery was completely blocked.

His story highlights an important reality: heart disease is often silent until it is not.

For decades, we associated serious cardiac events with age, inactivity, or visibly poor health. Today, that assumption no longer holds true. Across India and around the world, we are seeing an increasing number of heart attacks and significant coronary artery disease in people in their 30s, 40s and 50s including individuals who are active, productive, and outwardly healthy.

At @HospitalsApollo , we are witnessing this shift firsthand.

What concerns me most is that many of these conditions are detectable long before they become life-threatening. Elevated cholesterol, diabetes, hypertension, arterial calcification, and early coronary artery disease can remain unnoticed for years unless we actively look for them.

A routine health assessment can reveal risks that the body may not yet be showing. Regular screening, risk profiling, and timely intervention remain some of the most powerful tools we have in modern medicine.

Equally important is listening to your body. Unexplained chest discomfort, breathlessness during exertion, unusual fatigue, pain in the shoulder, arm, neck, or jaw, or symptoms that consistently appear with activity and improve with rest should never be ignored.

As healthcare professionals, we often say that prevention is better than cure. But today, prevention is far more than a slogan it is our best opportunity to save lives.

The most successful treatment is often the one that prevents a medical emergency from ever occurring.

Let us honour stories like these not only with condolences, but with action. Schedule your health check-up. Know your risk factors. Encourage your family members to do the same.

Why are passengers taken for granted? Pathetic services.

@RailwaySeva @DRMKhurdaRoad Sitting for 2-3 hours, patients will die inside, in this extreme heat. An announcement would have served the purpose. What has PNR number got to do with this? Plz fix the issue, train is yet to depart from the source station.
