NEET 2026 exam cancelled: The cancellation of NEET-UG 2026 has triggered a nationwide controversy after investigators uncovered alleged large-scale circulation of a “guess paper” that reportedly overlapped significantly with the actual May 3 examination. Following inputs from multiple states, especially Rajasthan and Uttarakhand, and findings shared by law enforcement agencies, the National Testing Agency (NTA) scrapped the exam and ordered a re-test, while the Centre handed the case to the CBI for a comprehensive probe.
