With the NEET UG 2026 exam approaching, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has issued crucial reminders to candidates regarding exam-day protocols. It is mandatory for all candidates to present a valid original ID proof for entry into the examination hall. The NTA emphasizes that only the pen provided at the exam center should be used for filling the OMR sheet, and candidates must avoid overwriting or using correction fluid to ensure proper evaluation. Regarding attire, the agency insists on light and simple clothing while prohibiting heavy outfits and accessories to facilitate smooth security checks. Additionally, candidates are warned against bringing watches or electronic devices, as these are strictly forbidden in the exam hall. The NTA has also cautioned students about misleading claims of question paper leaks circulating on platforms like Telegram, urging them to rely only on official updates from the NTA's website and verified social media channels. Legal action is underway against those disseminating false information to protect the integrity of the examination process.
