140/180 NEET questions cannot be dismissed as mere βguesswork.β This strongly points towards a possible paper leak and raises concerns that there may be a mole within NTA itself.
@dpradhanbjp must immediately involve CBI. Millions of students deserve transparency cc @ANI
The National Testing Agency is aware of reports concerning the action initiated by the Rajasthan Special Operations Group in connection with alleged irregularities around NEET (UG) 2026. The following is placed on record for the information of candidates, parents, and the public.
1. The examination on 3 May 2026 was conducted as scheduled and under a full security protocol. Question papers were transported in GPS-tracked vehicles bearing unique, traceable watermark identifiers. Examination halls operated under AI-assisted CCTV monitoring from a central control room, with biometric verification of every candidate and 5G jammers in operation. The examination process itself proceeded as planned across all centres on the day.
2. On the late evening of 7 May 2026, four days after the examination, NTA received inputs concerning alleged malpractice activity around the examination. These inputs were escalated by NTA to central agencies on the morning of 8 May 2026 for independent verification and necessary action. The action subsequently undertaken by the law enforcement agencies, including the detentions reported in the media over recent days, is the result of their professional and timely work. NTA places on record its appreciation for the agencies leading this effort, and confirms that it is working closely with them in a fully supporting role, providing all examination-related data and technical assistance required.
3. The matter is presently under investigation and the facts will be established by the agencies in due course. NTA will not pre-judge the inquiry, nor characterise its likely outcome. Whatever the agencies determine β including findings that may require further action β will be examined transparently and disclosed in keeping with established procedure.
4. To the candidates of NEET (UG) 2026 and their families: the effort and integrity of the very large majority of bona-fide aspirants is not in question, and will not be devalued. NTA is conscious of the anxiety reports of this nature can cause, and we ask candidates to allow the agencies the space to complete their work. Any necessary steps will be taken in consultation with the Ministry of Education at the appropriate stage.
5. Helpline: For any queries, please contact NEET 2026 helpline: [email protected] or at 011-40759000 / 011-69227700.
NTA remains committed to fair, secure, and credible examinations and to working closely with all investigating agencies in support of the integrity of the examination system.

@NTA_Exams Definitely it was very well managed as compared to last year but @NTA_Exams should think of providing 2 attempts like JEE and in CBT format. Why treat NEET differently. Tagging @EduMinOfIndia@dpradhanbjp to ponder over these cc @DeebashreeM
Requesting @NTA_Exams to reconsider the answer to the controversial question on rounding off 7.654 to either 7.6 or 7.7 and declare it a bonus Q. It is difficult to understand the purpose of including such borderline and ambiguous questions in a high-stakes exam like #NEETUG2026
NEET UG 2026 provisional answer keys have been released.
Details regarding OMR upload and challenge process will be shared separately.
Please refer only to the official website for authentic updates and information.

Best wishes to all students taking the NEET UG examination today. Stay calm, focused and give your best.
The medical profession stands for compassion, service and a lifelong commitment to learning. Wishing every aspirant the clarity and confidence to take a meaningful step towards this path.
@DeebashreeM Many thanks π for publishing the article. Coincidentally NTA has also published a notice regarding the same on 29th April. My sincere regards once again
@DeebashreeM Hi, I follow your JEE/education articles. As a parent of a NEET aspirant, I request your help. NEET is on 3 May, but NTA has not clarified basics like wall clocks, fans/ventilation at centres, or backup process if Aadhaar biometric fails (many faced issues last year)
Grateful to @DeebashreeM for bringing attention to biometric authentication failures via @IndiaToday article. Also appreciate @NTA_Exams for responding with guidelines π #NEETUG2026#NTA

@NTA_Exams Thank you @NTA_Exams for addressing biometric failure scenarios, much appreciated π.
Hoping these guidelines are effectively communicated to all exam centre superintendents/observers to avoid last-minute confusion during #NEET2026@EduMinOfIndia@dpradhanbjp
@DeebashreeM Iβve emailed, tweeted, and even sent a postal letter to them, but received no satisfactory response. Please consider highlighting this before 3 May in the interest of 26 lakh aspirants. Happy to discuss more on this topic, tx in adv.
@NTA_Exams Biometric fingerprint failures can still occur for NEET aspirants even after Aadhaar updates. Request @NTA_Exams to issue clear guidelines on alternative procedures in such cases. This will reduce uncertainty for students, parents, and invigilators. @EduMinOfIndia@dpradhanbjp
@NTA_Exams Pls ensure every exam hall has a visible wall clock and proper fans/ventilation. Instruct invigilators to avoid distracting students and minimise time wasted on signatures during the exam. Also, provide reliable alternatives when biometrics fail at centres @EduMinOfIndia
Reminder to @NTA_Exams regarding #NEET2026: Issue a notice outlining the alternative procedure if fingerprint/biometric authentication fails for a NEET aspirant at the exam centre. This will reduce uncertainty for students/parents and invigilators. @dpradhanbjp@EduMinOfIndia
Request to @NTA_Exams for #NEET2026 : Please publish a notice on biometric verification at exam centres, including the fallback process if fingerprint or biometric authentication fails. Timely communication will ease anxiety for students/parents. @EduMinOfIndia@dpradhanbjp
