Director General of Police YB Khurania held a review meeting at his camp office in Bhubaneswar on Tuesday ahead of the NEET-UG 2026 exam on June 21 to make sure the test is administered in a hygienic, cost-free, and efficient way. In order to uphold peace and order and ensure a smooth examination procedure, the DGP instructed all district SPs to implement three-tier security measures. The NEET-UG test will be administered at 132 locations throughout the state’s districts this year.
Exam center security, CCTV monitoring, question paper storage in bank vaults, traffic control, emergency response plans, and upholding peace and order both within and outside the center were all covered at the conference. The cyber cell has been alerted and social media surveillance has increased. The DGP directed authorities to pre-test and confirm all security procedures and mandated rigorous vigilance against false information and rumors.
He also directed officers to strictly follow instructions for collecting OMR sheets from examination centres after the exam and shifting them to designated safe locations. The DGP made it clear that any irregularities, dishonest activities or security lapses related to the examination will not be tolerated and asked all SPs to remain alert, vigilant and prepared at all times. Crime Branch DG Binaytosh Mishra, Additional Director General of Police Law and Order Sanjay Kumar, and IG Central Dr. Satyajit Naik attended the meeting.
