The Railways stated that these special services are intended to help students reach their destinations on time and avoid travel-related difficulties on the day of the examination. Meanwhile, the Economic Offences Unit (EOU) of the Bihar Police has intensified surveillance and security arrangements to ensure a fair and transparent examination process.
A special monitoring cell has been established, and authorities are maintaining close surveillance on 135 individuals previously identified in cases related to examination fraud, paper leaks, impersonation, and other irregularities in competitive examinations.
Re-NEET exam: Check advisory to candidates, parents, and guardians
The EOU has also issued an advisory to candidates, parents, and guardians, urging them to remain cautious of fraudsters and misinformation campaigns during the examination period. Officials said cybercriminals and anti-social elements may attempt to deceive students through phone calls, messages, emails, or social media posts by falsely claiming to provide question papers, answer keys, or guaranteed success in exchange for money.
Authorities have advised students to avoid such fraudulent claims and immediately report any suspicious activity to the concerned authorities. The enhanced security measures and additional train services are aimed at ensuring that NEET candidates can appear for the examination in a safe, transparent, and stress-free environment.
