NEET UG 2025: The National Testing Agency (NTA) will hold the NEET UG 2025 exam tomorrow, May 4, for more than 22.7 lakh enrolled candidates at 5453 centres in 500+ cities across the country. As a precaution following the paper leak in last year's exam, stringent security measures are being observed under the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2024, which also imposes heavy penalties such as a three-year debarment in case of any malpractice.
Most of the examination centers are government and aided schools to maintain proper infrastructure and supervise. Candidates are advised to adhere to all regulations strictly to escape disqualification or disciplinary action.
