IMPHAL 13 AUG 2026: Twenty-nine Meitei and Naga candidates appearing for NEET-PG 2026 have reportedly been allotted an examination centre in Churachandpur district, prompting the candidates to seek intervention from the authorities for relocation of the centre.

The candidates have expressed concern over the allotment, stating that the prevailing situation could make it difficult for them to travel to Churachandpur and appear for the examination if the centre remains there.

Seeking a solution, the candidates have submitted applications to Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla and Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh, urging them to intervene and facilitate a change of their examination centre. They have also approached the concerned authorities, requesting that their circumstances be considered and necessary arrangements made.

The candidates have appealed to the authorities to ensure that they are able to sit for the postgraduate medical entrance examination without facing difficulties arising from the location of the allotted centre.

The issue comes amid similar concerns during the recently conducted NEET examination, when some candidates from the valley were allotted examination centres in Churachandpur. On that matter, the concerned authorities reportedly made arrangements for the candidates to appear for the examination at a centre in Imphal.

The candidates are now seeking similar consideration for NEET-PG 2026, saying that shifting the centre would enable them to appear for the examination without disruption.
