India’s medical entrance exam NEET-UG resumed under unprecedented security after the first administration was cancelled over allegations of a leaked paper. Nearly 2.28 million candidates sat for the exam on May 3, and the controversy triggered protests and demands for Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to resign, which he did not accept. For the resit, the National Testing Agency reported biometric identification checks, metal detectors, armoured patrols, and more than 1.3 million cameras across exam rooms. The NTA also said 51,311 jammers were used to block phone signals and electrical interference, while Telegram was temporarily blocked over cheating concerns. The article says security deployments covered 5,440 exam centres nationwide, including frisking staff and additional measures such as drones and dog squads at some locations, with strict dress rules enforced.
