The National Testing Agency (NTA) has officially announced that the NEET UG 2026 re-examination will be conducted on June 21, 2026. The decision comes after the earlier exam held on May 3 was cancelled following allegations of a paper leak and other irregularities.
According to the official notification, fresh admit cards will be issued to all candidates appearing for the re-exam. Students have been advised to regularly check the official NTA website for updates and important instructions.
The NEET UG exam is one of India’s biggest medical entrance examinations and is conducted for admission into MBBS, BDS, and other medical courses across the country. This year, more than 22 lakh students are expected to appear for the exam again.
The re-exam announcement comes after several reports of question paper leaks and malpractice surfaced from different states. Following investigations and inputs from law enforcement agencies, the government and NTA decided to cancel the original examination to ensure fairness and transparency.
NTA has also requested students and parents not to believe rumours circulating on social media and to rely only on official announcements for accurate information.
