The National Medical Commission (NMC) has asked all medical colleges not to grant leave to students on May 2 and 3 during the Under Graduate National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (UGNEET-2026), unless in exceptional circumstances with due justification. This is to prevent their possible involvement in exam malpractices, the Union Ministry of Education said in its letter to NMC. “This measure is intended as a preventive step to discourage any potential misuse and to support the fair conduct of the examination,” it said.
