NEET UG 2026 Cancelled After Paper Leak, Protests Erupt in Delhi

In a major development, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced the cancellation of the NEET (UG) 2026 exam following allegations of a paper leak the night before the May 3 examination. The NTA, with approval from the Government of India, confirmed that the exam, which serves as the qualifying test for undergraduate medical courses across India, would now be re-conducted on fresh dates, which will be announced in the coming days. The decision to cancel the exam came after law enforcement agencies shared investigative findings, confirming that the exam process could not stand. In the wake of the cancellation, the NTA assured that no fresh registration would be required for the re-examination and that the previously paid fees would be refunded. The agency also stated that it would cooperate fully with the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which has been tasked with further investigating the matter. The announcement triggered widespread protests from student organizations across the country, particularly in Delhi. One such protest, organized by the National Students' Union of India (NSUI), took place near Shastri Bhawan, the headquarters of the Union Education Ministry. The protesting students demanded clarity and accountability regarding the leak and the subsequent cancellation. In its statement, the NTA acknowledged the inconvenience caused to the students and their families but emphasized that the decision was made to preserve the integrity of the examination process. It further confirmed that candidates' registration details, examination centers, and other information would remain intact for the re-conducted exam. Candidates were advised to only rely on official communications from NTA for updates regarding the revised exam schedule. The NTA’s move is seen as an effort to restore public trust in the examination system, which has been rocked by the allegations of a paper leak. The re-examination is expected to be conducted using NTA's internal resources, with no additional charges for candidates.
