Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Chaudhary confirmed that the Central Government is thoroughly investigating irregularities linked to the NEET-UG 2026 examination, which was canceled due to allegations of a paper leak. The examination, held on May 3, involved over 22 lakh candidates across 551 cities in India and 14 cities abroad. Chaudhary emphasized that the government is committed to ensuring that students will not face inconvenience during the re-examination scheduled for June 21, 2026. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is currently probing the matter, with several arrests made in connection to the investigation. The National Testing Agency (NTA) clarified that while some questions were leaked, the entire examination paper was not compromised. The Parliamentary Standing Committee is reviewing the situation and has discussed implementing a computer-based testing system to enhance security and prevent future incidents. Enhanced security measures will be in place for the upcoming re-examination, reflecting the government's zero-tolerance policy towards examination irregularities.
