NEET Exam

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has cancelled the NEET UG 2026 examination after allegations of a paper leak, delivering a major setback to over 22 lakh medical aspirants across the country.

The exam, conducted on May 3, 2026, has now been scrapped following concerns over its integrity. The agency has also announced that a re-examination will be conducted, but the fresh dates will be notified separately.

According to official updates, the decision was taken after inputs from central agencies and findings shared by law enforcement authorities raised serious concerns about the examination process. The matter has also been referred for a detailed probe.

Reports indicate that irregularities, including suspected circulation of leaked question material, triggered the review of the examination’s conduct. Authorities have stated that the move was necessary to ensure transparency and maintain the credibility of the national-level entrance test.

The government has supported the decision, and further details regarding the re-exam schedule are expected to be released through official channels.

pm modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday welcomed the decision of the new BJP government in West Bengal to implement the Ayushman Bharat health insurance scheme, saying the welfare of the people of the state remains the Centre’s top priority.

The development comes days after the BJP formed its first government in the state under Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari following the 2026 Assembly elections. During the first cabinet meeting, the Bengal government approved the rollout of Ayushman Bharat along with several other central schemes.

In a post on X, Modi said he was happy that people in West Bengal would now benefit from Ayushman Bharat, which provides health insurance coverage of up to Rs 5 lakh annually to eligible families. He also said the “double-engine government” would ensure seamless implementation of major central welfare programmes in the state.

Ayushman Bharat, launched by the Centre in 2018, is one of India’s flagship public healthcare schemes aimed at providing cashless treatment to economically vulnerable families across the country.

After chairing his first cabinet meeting, Adhikari described the decisions taken by the new government as steps toward “Asol Poriborton” or real change in the state. The BJP secured 207 seats in the 294-member West Bengal Assembly, defeating the Trinamool Congress in the recent elections.
