The Bihar government will provide free bus travel for all students taking the NEET UG 2026 re-examination on June 21 . Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary announced the initiative. Students can ride state-owned government buses without charge to reach their exam centers.
This decision follows the cancellation of the previous NEET UG 2026 exam. Allegations of paper leaks led to the cancellation. The National Testing Agency (NTA) rescheduled the re-exam. The NTA is implementing stricter security measures for the June 21 test. Thousands of students are expected to benefit.
The free transport is particularly helpful for students from low-income families. They may face financial challenges with travel costs. To use the service, candidates must show their NEET UG 2026 admission card. This requirement applies to travel on government buses.
Additional Support Measures
Chief Minister Choudhary also requested community support. He urged local organizations, NGOs, and temples to assist students. District authorities are also involved. They will help families during the exam period.
Officials will set up amenities at key locations. These include bus stops and train stations. Drinking water and refreshments will be available. This aims to reduce stress for candidates and their families.
Other states are also announcing support for exam candidates. These measures aim to ease logistical burdens. Bihar's free bus travel initiative has received positive feedback. Students and parents view it as a student-friendly action during a difficult time.
