NEET Re-Exam 2026: Ahead of NEET UG re-examination scheduled for June 21, NTA have placed paper setters and those involved in preparing question paper under lockdown at undisclosed location. The move is part of security arrangements after cancellation of NEET May exam over paper leak allegations. According to reports, mobile phones, laptops, smartwatches and other communication devices are not allowed. Internet access has also been restricted, while entry and exit from facility are being closely monitored. Officials said this aims to prevent any possibility of information leaks.

Multi Layer Security Measures for NEET UG Re Exam 2026

The isolation of NEET paper setters is only one part of security framework for re examination. Authorities have strengthened security at every stage, including question paper creation, moderation, translation, printing, packaging, storage and transportation. This has been divided among different teams to ensure that no individual has access to entire chain of operations.

National Testing Agency has also dismissed claims circulating on social media platforms regarding alleged leak of June 21 question paper. The agency termed them false and warned of strict action against those spreading misinformation.
