With the NEET UG 2026 exam scheduled for May 3, 2026, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has issued a warning to candidates about fraudulent claims circulating on social media, particularly on platforms like Telegram. These scams falsely promise access to exam papers. The NTA has taken action against such misinformation, stating that legal measures will be enforced against those responsible for spreading these rumors. Candidates are advised to only follow official updates from the NTA's website and verified social media accounts. Additionally, the NTA has emphasized the need for candidates to present valid ID proof on exam day, as entry to the examination hall will be prohibited without it. The agency also reminded students about the dress code, recommending simple, light clothing and advising against full sleeveless outfits and heavy accessories.
