Telegram temporarily restricted in India ahead of NEET re-exam; NTA welcomes Centre's move
Telegram access in India is temporarily restricted until June 22, 2026, following a government crackdown on fake NEET (UG) 2026 re-examination papers and exam fraud. The National Testing Agency welcomed the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology's action, citing the misuse of Telegram's message-editing feature to fabricate evidence of paper leaks.
