Overview
- On Tuesday the chief minister announced a 50% fare concession on Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation buses for NEET‑UG 2026 re‑exam candidates who show admit cards, a benefit meant for about 3.5 lakh students across 59 districts.
- District administrations were told to arrange temporary accommodation for outstation candidates who lack lodging so travel or lack of rooms does not block exam attendance on June 21.
- Officials were ordered to enforce National Testing Agency guidelines, monitor social media closely and act quickly against rumours or false information to protect the exam’s transparency and integrity.
- For Muharram the government banned weapon displays, barred new practices, restricted high‑volume DJs and set a 10–12 foot limit for tazias to reduce risks to public order and safety.
- The CM directed large‑scale International Yoga Day programmes in all gram panchayats and urban bodies with a June 20 cleanliness drive and live telecast of the prime minister’s address while warning of administrative accountability and ordering CMO appointments within three days.
