In preparation for the NEET-UG 2026 re-examination on June 21, the government has temporarily banned Telegram to prevent scams and misinformation. The NTA has taken this step to ensure the integrity of the exam, as certain channels were misleading students by claiming to leak question papers. The ban will last until June 22, with the message-editing feature disabled until June 30. Students are advised to rely solely on official sources for exam-related information. This decision comes after the previous cancellation of the exam on May 3, with around 22 lakh candidates expected to participate in the upcoming re-exam.
