The New Racket of Selling NEET Papers! NTA Strikes Back Against Telegram Gang Demanding ?35,000 Advance
‘?35,000 Advance Starting Tomorrow’ — New Claims of NEET Re-Exam Paper Leak; NTA Goes into Action Mode
New Delhi: Ahead of the NEET UG 2026 re-examination, rumors of a paper leak have once again begun to circulate. Claims have surfaced on Telegram alleging that the question paper for the exam—scheduled for June 21—is being sold for ?35,000. Taking cognizance of this matter, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has filed a complaint with the Cyber ??Crime Department.
A user named Prince Srivastava posted on 'X' (formerly Twitter), sharing links to three specific Telegram groups. These groups are named 'Prafu', 'Private Group', and 'Private Mafia'. Photographs and screenshots have gone viral showing the administrator of these groups instructing students to deposit an advance payment of ?35,000, starting tomorrow.
The photographs appear to show bundles of question papers lying on a table. However, the Cyber ??Police have initiated an investigation to determine whether these images are authentic or if old photographs are being repurposed to perpetrate a fraud.
NTA's Stance
The NTA has taken serious cognizance of this matter and has immediately lodged a complaint with the Cyber ??Department. An investigation has been launched to prevent students from falling victim to such fraudulent schemes. The NTA has categorically stated that strict action will be taken to uphold the security and transparency of the examination process.
Advisory for Students
Students, who are already under the stress of the upcoming examination, are advised to exercise caution and refrain from engaging with or paying money to such fraudulent groups. If you encounter any suspicious groups or offers, you should report them directly to the NTA or the police.
