  "account": "Following a paper leak controversy in NEET-UG, the National Testing Agency (NTA) will now receive security from the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) in its new Delhi office. The move aims to ensure foolproof arrangements in confidential areas, following the 2026 leak that sparked nationwide student protests and led to the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. The CISF, consisting of 39 personnel, will be responsible for security, access-control, and screening measures, including X-ray baggage screening and metal detectors at all entry and exit points. The NTA, which conducts fair and standardized exams, has been operating from its Okhla office since its establishment in 2017. The new CISF deployment is part of ongoing efforts to establish strict access controls, encryption standards, and tamper-evident storage for all examination-critical systems.",
