Millions of students across India retake the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for admission to medical courses following a question paper leak controversy. Multiple reports say more than two million premedical candidates appear for the exam on the scheduled day, with around 2.2 million students reported in coverage. Authorities deploy strict security measures at examination centers as the retest proceeds. The reports describe the retest as a high-stakes event that follows earlier disruption tied to the leak allegations. Coverage also notes parallel political developments, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s presence in Kolkata for International Yoga Day, but the central focus remains on the nationwide retest and the large turnout. Overall, the sources converge on the scale of participation—over two million students—and the role of heightened security during the exam process.
