At the same time, NTA sources said that acting on the inputs received through the newly launched suspicious claims reporting portal, the agency has identified these channels and accounts spreading fake information related to the exam. This move is part of a larger crackdown on misinformation, which aims to mislead and create panic among the candidates ahead of the national level medical entrance exam.

Action will be taken.

Sources said that NTA has requested Telegram and Instagram to immediately remove these channels, so that lies and unnecessary panic can be prevented from spreading among the candidates. Also, the examination agency requested that the details of the admins of these groups be shared from both the platforms, so that further legal action can be taken.

NTA has launched the portal

NTA launched the portal in this regard on 26 April. On this portal, the National Examination Agency has urged the public to report three types of violations. First, unauthorized platforms claiming access to the papers, second, individuals claiming to be in possession of the exam material and third, individuals posing as NTA or government officials.
