In a major step towards strengthening the examination system, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has launched the ‘Pariksha Karmayogi’ programme aimed at training officials involved in conducting national-level entrance examinations, including NEET UG 2026.

The initiative focuses on enhancing the skills of examination functionaries, ensuring greater transparency, efficiency, accountability, and security in the exam process.
