District Magistrate Dr. Vishal Kumar confirmed that the process is moving forward without disruptions. Speaking on the status of the exam, he noted: "Today, the NEET UG re-examination is underway. We visited Kendriya Vidyalaya to inspect the arrangements. In West Tripura district alone, there are nine examination centres. Students entered the examination halls by 1:30 PM, and biometric attendance systems are functioning properly."
Authorities have implemented strict measures to protect the integrity of the testing environment. Under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, the District Magistrate prohibited gatherings of five or more people within a 100-yard radius of each venue. These restrictions also limit access to authorized personnel and forbid the possession of weapons near the sites.
Security forces are maintaining a heavy presence at all locations to ensure order.
