NEET UG re-exam 2026 : The government does not want any mistake this time regarding NEET-UG 2026 re-test. After the paper leak controversy, questions were raised on the country’s biggest medical entrance examination.

Additional security arrangements will be made especially at airports, helipads, hub centers and important places.

Papers will be sent across the country from Hyderabad and Ahmedabad

For this, hub and spoke model will be used, in which question papers and OMR sheets will be safely transported to different examination centers through both air and road routes.

How long will the security arrangements last?

According to the information, security arrangements will be in place during the movement of question papers from June 11 to June 19. After the completion of the examination, security forces will be deployed from the evening of June 21 to bring back the OMR sheets and other material.
