In a significant move, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has taken action against over 100 Telegram and Instagram channels for spreading false information about the NEET UG 2025 exam. This crackdown follows mounting concerns regarding paper leaks and misinformation circulating on various online platforms.
The Cyber Crime Coordination Centre, overseen by the Ministry of Home Affairs, is actively investigating these allegations. NTA’s proactive stance aligns with the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2024, aimed at safeguarding the integrity of public exams and ensuring a fair playing field for all aspirants.

Prior to this crackdown, NTA had set up a dedicated portal urging the public to report any suspicious activities or individuals related to the NEET exam. The response has been overwhelming, with nearly 1,500 reports received, with a majority of them linked to Telegram channels.
The deadline for reporting any dubious claims or individuals has been set until 5 pm on May 4, 2025. This stringent action underscores the agency’s commitment to upholding the sanctity of the NEET UG 2025 exam, scheduled to take place on May 4 from 2 pm to 5 pm in a single shift.
As part of the examination process, candidates can now access their exam city slips and admit cards, which have been made available for download on the official website, neet.nta.nic.in. In case of any difficulties in acquiring the admit card, candidates are advised to contact NTA via phone or email for prompt assistance.
This crackdown on misinformation and false claims surrounding the NEET UG 2025 exam serves as a reminder of the growing challenges posed by fake news in the digital age. The proliferation of such misleading information not only undermines the credibility of educational assessments but also jeopardizes the futures of countless students aspiring to pursue higher education.
Experts emphasize the need for stringent measures to combat the spread of fake news, especially in critical areas like education, where the stakes are high for students and institutions alike. The proactive steps taken by NTA reflect a broader trend across industries to tackle misinformation and uphold the integrity of assessments and evaluations.
As technology continues to evolve, the battle against fake news is likely to intensify, necessitating a concerted effort from regulatory bodies, educational institutions, and the public to combat this growing menace effectively. The NEET UG 2025 crackdown serves as a timely reminder of the importance of vigilance and swift action in safeguarding the integrity of educational assessments.
