The National Testing Agency (NTA) has issued an advisory to students appearing for the NEET-UG 2026 re-examination, urging them to remain calm and ignore rumors about postponement of the examination.
The NTA said extensive arrangements have been put in place to ensure a 'safe, secure and fair examination' in coordination with ministries, state governments and security agencies.
The agency also warned that any attempt at malpractice would be dealt with firmly and reiterated that the decision to cancel the original May 3 examination was taken in the interest of students.
The NTA also highlighted the availability of the MANAS mental health helpline for those struggling with stress or anxiety ahead of the re-examination.
The re-examination is scheduled to be held on June 21 after the original NEET-UG 2026 test was cancelled following allegations of a paper leak.
