NEET UG 2023

Once again, the frisking policies of the National Testing Agency (NTA) have come under fire during the NEET UG exam. At least two incidents have been reported from Maharashtra and West Bengal respectively where some aspirants were asked to change their attire, had their innerwear examined, or were asked to wear them inside out.

Over 2 million candidates appeared for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2023 which was held on Sunday at 4,000 odd centers. Some of the candidates shared their experiences on social media about their frisking policies.

Candidates alleged that they were asked to remove their clothing and were either made to wear them inside out or swap with their parents.

A controversial incident raised the eyebrows of many after candidates on social media reported about the manner in which authorities were checking the bra straps of female aspirants and also asked them to open their innerwear for frisking.

A doctor couple complained to TOI that girl students in a center in Sangli (Kasturba Walchand College) students were made to remove their kurtas and wear them inside out. They said this is absolutely unacceptable and no way to treat students who appear for such an important exam. This action itself mentally disturbs a student before a critical exam.

A candidate from HMC Education Centre, West Bengal, reported that several candidates were asked to change their pants or open their innerwear. Several girl students had interchanged their jeans with their mother’s leggings.

He further said the girls had to change their dresses in an open playground along with boys, with their parents surrounding their children to protect them as there were no enclosures or shops around the center.

Taking cognizance of the same, NTA said it will issue, comprehensive instructions to the staff at exam centers to be mindful of sensitivities involved in frisking female candidates.

Results

The Kerala Public Examination Section has officially announced the Kerala CM Kids LSS and USS result 2026. The scorecard link is live for candidates who sat for the scholarship eligibility examinations conducted in February 2026.

However, shortly after the declaration, several students and parents encountered difficulties trying to log onto the main portal, bpekerala.in. Due to a massive surge in simultaneous traffic from eager candidates, the official website has experienced temporary server slowdowns, loading delays, and intermittent error screens. Media reports indicate that the portal might stay slow during peak hours, but authorities ensure that the result data is perfectly safe and live online.

Why the Kerala LSS USS result website is slow

Technical glitches right after a major result declaration are quite common due to infrastructural limitations during peak traffic. Some of the primary factors contributing to the current loading errors include:

  • High visitor traffic: Thousands of students trying to load the homepage simultaneously.
  • Server overload: Simultaneous database requests leading to temporary unresponsive servers.
  • Mobile compatibility limitations: Heavy traffic coupled with certain mobile browsers causing slow rendering times.

Step-by-step guide to download Kerala LSS USS result 2026

If you are experiencing slow loading speeds on the primary web server, you can carefully try the following steps to download your marksheet:

  • Step 1: Navigate to the official website at bpekerala.in and let the landing page load completely without interrupting.
  • Step 2: Find and click on the link labeled “CM Kids LSS USS Result 2026” or head directly to the dedicated “Results” tab on the interface.
  • Step 3: Enter your accurate credentials, which include your Registration Number and Date of Birth (formatted as DD/MM/YYYY), precisely as mentioned in your original hall ticket.
  • Step 4: Click on the “Submit” or “View Result” button. If the screen takes time to process, avoid refreshing multiple times as it can block your session.
  • Step 5: Once your breakdown of scores appears on the dashboard, download the digital copy or capture a screenshot, then print a physical copy for any future administrative or school needs.

Alternative links and troubleshooting tips

If bpekerala.in fails to open entirely, candidates are advised not to panic. A backup official digital platform has been set up to ease the main server load. Students can log into pareekshabhavan.kerala.gov.in to access mirrored links for checking their LSS and USS scholarship scores.

Additionally, you can follow these easy technical fixes to bypass server bottlenecks:

  • Clear browser data: Empty your browser cache or open the link using an Incognito/Private window.
  • Change connectivity: Switch your internet connection from mobile data to a stable Wi-Fi connection, or vice versa, to reset data routing.
  • Switch your browser: Try alternative web browsers like Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome instead of default system web viewers.
  • Check during off-peak windows: Wait for about 15 to 30 minutes and re-attempt during non-peak windows when server traffic naturally drops down.

CBSE makes three languages mandatory for Classes 9 and 10 from July 1

CBSE has announced that students in Classes 9 and 10 must study three languages from July 1, 2026, though no board examination will be conducted for the third language during the initial rollout.

CBSE

The Central Board of Secondary Education has announced that students in Classes 9 and 10 will be required to study three languages from July 1, 2026, as part of the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCFSE) 2023.

Under the revised structure, students will study languages under the R1, R2 and R3 format. The board has clarified that two of the three languages must be Indian languages.

However, CBSE has stated that there will be no Class 10 board examination for the third language, also referred to as R3, during the initial phase of implementation.

What the new language structure means

According to the updated curriculum framework, students will choose three different languages. The same language cannot be selected at more than one level simultaneously.

The board has explained the structure as:

  • R1: Any language offered by CBSE
  • R2: A language different from R1
  • R3: A third language different from both R1 and R2

The move is aimed at promoting multilingual education in line with NEP 2020 recommendations.

No board exam for third language initially

CBSE has clarified that although the third language will become mandatory for Classes 9 and 10, students will not immediately face a board examination for R3 in Class 10.

Reports said the full implementation of the three-language board examination structure is expected to happen gradually over the coming years.

Schools asked to prepare for rollout

The board has already directed schools to finalise language options and upload details on the OASIS portal to ensure smooth implementation of the revised policy.

CBSE has also indicated that temporary textbook arrangements and interim measures for language teacher shortages may be introduced during the transition phase.

NEET Exam

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced that the NEET UG 2026 re-examination will be conducted on June 21 following the cancellation of the earlier exam amid allegations of a paper leak.

The original NEET UG 2026 examination, held on May 3, was scrapped after investigative agencies flagged concerns regarding the integrity of the exam process. The matter is currently under investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

NTA issues fresh schedule

According to the official announcement, candidates who had registered for the cancelled examination will not be required to submit fresh applications for the re-test. Existing registrations will remain valid for the June 21 examination.

The agency has also advised students and parents to rely only on official NTA communication channels for updates related to admit cards, examination centres and other examination-related notifications.

Paper leak investigation underway

The NEET UG paper leak case has triggered a nationwide probe, with the CBI making multiple arrests in connection with the alleged leak network. Investigators are examining how question papers were allegedly circulated before the examination.

Reports have suggested that handwritten copies of the question paper were allegedly scanned and circulated through messaging networks and intermediaries ahead of the examination.

Students await admit cards and city slips

The NTA is expected to release fresh city intimation slips and admit cards ahead of the June 21 examination date. Candidates have been advised to regularly check the official NEET website for updates regarding examination centres and instructions.
