The National Testing Agency (NTA) has issued a statement addressing concerns over alleged irregularities in the NEET UG 2026 exam, which took place on May 3, 2026. Following reports of malpractice, the Rajasthan Special Operations Group initiated an investigation. NTA assured that the exam was conducted under comprehensive security measures, including GPS-tracked vehicles, unique watermark identifiers for question papers, AI-assisted CCTV monitoring, and biometric verification of candidates. To prevent electronic cheating, 5G jammers were deployed at exam centers. The NTA received information about suspected malpractice four days post-exam and promptly shared this with central agencies for verification. The agency expressed gratitude to law enforcement for their swift action and reiterated its commitment to maintaining exam integrity. NTA also reassured students and parents that the integrity of the majority of candidates will not be compromised and that any findings from the investigation will be transparently communicated. Candidates can direct their queries to the NTA helpline or email.
