Telegram has moved the Delhi High Court against the Centre's temporary ban on the messaging platform ahead of the NEET UG 2026 re-test, arguing that the restriction unfairly impacts millions of ordinary users.
Messaging platform Telegram has approached the Delhi High Court challenging the Centre’s decision to temporarily block access to the app ahead of the NEET UG 2026 re-test scheduled for June 21. The matter was mentioned before Justice Tejas Karia on Wednesday, who agreed to take up the plea later in the day, as per Livelaw reports.
High court challenge filed
The petition comes days after the government ordered a temporary restriction on Telegram as part of efforts to prevent the circulation of examination-related material and curb malpractice during the medical entrance examination.
According to submissions made before the court, Telegram has sought urgent relief against the suspension, arguing that the ban is disproportionate and affects millions of users who have no connection with alleged exam-related violations.
