Re-NEET Details
The NEET UG re-exam is scheduled for June 21 from 2 PM to 5:15 PM. It will be conducted in pen-and-paper mode in various cities across India and abroad. The exam will be held in 13 languages: English, Oriya, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Urdu, Marathi, Malayalam, Gujarati, Punjabi, Assamese, and Kannada.
Candidates will be given an additional 15 minutes for the NEET UG re-exam. This extra time will be used for document verification, attendance, and other pre-exam formalities.
Pradhan on Friday accepted that there has been a breach in the NEET-UG examination and said that the ministry takes “responsibility for rectifying it”.
“We did not want any deserving student to be deprived of their rights due to the machinations of fraudulent candidates or the conspiracies of the education mafia… After the irregularities that surfaced last time, the Radhakrishnan Committee had been constituted, and we implemented its recommendations word for word for both 2025 and 2026. Despite that, this incident occurred. Hence, our first decision was to cancel the examination,” the minister said.
