NTA clarified that a Nagpur NEET UG 2026 candidate’s exam centre was changed to Abu Dhabi via the candidate’s own login during the correction window. It later processed a request to shift it back to Nagpur and acted promptly.

NEET UG 2026 Re-Exam: The National Testing Agency (NTA) has issued a detailed clarification regarding the allotment of an examination centre in Abu Dhabi to a NEET UG 2026 candidate from Nagpur, Maharashtra, stating that the city change was made through the candidate's own registered login credentials during the examination-city correction window.

According to the NTA, following the rescheduling of the NEET (UG) 2026 examination to June 21, the agency reopened the examination-city correction window to assist candidates in updating their preferences. Around 3.2 lakh candidates utilised the facility, and more than 99.5% were allotted their preferred examination cities.

Addressing the specific case of the Nagpur candidate, the NTA said its web activity records showed that the examination city was changed to Abu Dhabi through the candidate's registered account during the correction period. The agency noted that the access logs reflected a consistent single-user access pattern.

The NTA further stated that it had observed three separate instances related to the centre selection. According to the agency, the examination centre was changed to Abu Dhabi once using the candidate's credentials, while the Abu Dhabi centre was previewed twice thereafter.
