. NEW DELHI: Nearly two in five NEET (UG) aspirants this year came from just four states, highlighting the concentration of India’s medical education aspirants, even as the overall exam base continues to expand. Data from National Testing Agency (NTA)’s state-wise report for NEET (UG) 2026 shows that Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Bihar together accounted for about 9.4 lakh candidates, or 41.4% of the total 22.7 lakh candidates for the exam. Overall participation remained high. Of the 22.7 lakh candidates, over 22 lakh appeared, translating into an attendance rate of 96.9%. A total of 69,976 candidates were absent, or 3% of those allotted centres. The four largest states also topped the list individually. Uttar Pradesh recorded the highest allocation at around 3.6 lakh candidates, followed by Maharashtra with 2.2 lakh, Rajasthan with 2 lakh and Bihar with 1.5 lakh. Other high-volume states included Karnataka (1.5 lakh), Tamil Nadu (1.4 lakh), Madhya Pradesh (1.2 lakh), Kerala (1.1 lakh) and West Bengal (1 lakh). Together, the top nine states — from Uttar Pradesh to West Bengal — accounted for over 17 lakh candidates, or roughly threefourths of total pool, indicating a sharp clustering of aspirants in a limited set of large states. In contrast, several smaller states and Union territories reported allocations below 5,000 candidates, underlining the uneven geographic spread of participation. But attendance levels were consistently high across states. Gujarat recorded the highest attendance rate at 98.1%, followed by Puducherry at 98% and Rajasthan at 97.9%. Among large states, Uttar Pradesh (97.5%) and Maharashtra (97.4%) also reported strong turnout. Kerala had lowest attendance rate among major states at 94.4%, followed by Assam (95.1%) and Tamil Nadu (95.9%).About the AuthorManash Pratim GohainManash Pratim Gohain is a seasoned journalist with over two decades at The Times of India, where he has built a rich body of work spanning education policy, politics, and governance.

. DHAKA/NEW DELHI: “I hope no such incident will happen,” said Bangladesh home minister Salahuddin Ahmed on Wednesday when asked if he feared a rise in cases of suspected illegal immigrants being “pushed back” — forcibly expelled — from India into Bangladesh after BJP’s poll victories in bordering Assam and West Bengal. Illegal migration and ‘pushbacks’ have been a thorny issue in Indo-Bangladesh ties. Earlier on Tuesday, Bangladesh foreign minister Khalilur Rahman was quoted on the governing BNP’s official Facebook page as saying that Dhaka would act if such incidents occurred amid the “change of power” in West Bengal. Though former PM Sheikh Hasina’s stay in India after her 2024 ouster and a pending extradition request remain concerns for Dhaka, the “pushback” issue is seen by many in Bangladesh as a hurdle to ties. In New Delhi, meeting a delegation of Bangladeshi journalists, foreign secretary Vikram Misri said, “We have weathered a testing time,” adding, “We are getting down to reactivating all tools of bilateral relations and contacts.” Bangladesh and India have over 40 bilateral mechanisms covering trade, border management, consular issues and water, including the 2011 Teesta river water-sharing pact blocked by Mamata BanerjeeEnd of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos‘Congress Will Be Wiped Out Everywhere’: DMK Warns Cong Over Support To Vijay’s TVK2 Dead, 200+ FIRs, 433 Arrested, Over 1100 Detained In Post-Poll Violence In West Bengal‘Asked Me To Pay Rs 5 Crore’: Ex-Cricketer Makes Shocking Claim On TMC After Bengal PollsPakistan Navy Helps Stranded Indian Ship In Arabian Sea After Distress Call: ReportTVK Emerges Largest, But Vijay Needs Critical Backing To Form Govt; Will He Succeed?Election Commission Blocks 68 Lakh Cyber Attacks; ECINET Handles Record Traffic on Counting Day‘Directly Promoting ISI Narrative’: BJP Slams Bhagwant Mann’s Remark On Punjab BlastsIndia–Vietnam Upgrade Ties | Billion Trade Push, UPI Link & Big Strategic Signal to China‘Shortage Of Funds’: Akhilesh Yadav Reveals Why SP Ended Contract With I-PAC Ahead Of UP PollsTeesta Issue Explained: Can Bengal Result Unlock Deal As China Factor Raises Stakes123PhotostoriesHow to make Oats, Besan, and Chaach Chilla for a light summer breakfastAre you storing fruits all wrong?

Rahul Gandhi, MK Stalin CHENNAI/NEW DELHI: Congress snapped on Wednesday its 11-year alliance with the DMK and threw its weight behind TVK, deepening fissures in INDIA bloc after DMK’s rout in Tamil Nadu. AICC in-charge Girish Chodankar met TVK chief C Joseph Vijay and pledged support of Congress’s five MLAs. “Congress-TVK alliance will continue for local body polls and 2029 Lok Sabha elections,” Chodankar said. The switch redraws the state’s political map and blunts INDIA bloc’s pitch of a united front against BJP. Congress framed its support as a move to “keep away communal forces”. “Is INDIA bloc still alive?” a senior Congress neta asked, citing frictions with regional partners. “We are still uncertain about numbers to form govt in Tamil Nadu. We will focus on INDIA bloc after this,” said Su Thirunavukkarasar. DMK netas hit back, branding the move “backstabbing”.Also Read | ‘Backstabbers’: INDIA bloc cracks out in open; DMK attacks ally Congress over support to TVK’s Vijay in Tamil Nadu AICC spokesman Pawan Khera rejected the charge as unfair, recalling DMK’s 2013 break with Congress. “Two parties fight together to stop the rot. If we can form a govt with likeminded parties, what is wrong with it,” he said, defending the realignment with TVK, formed in 2024. The fallout comes as two key bloc partners — DMK and Trinamool Congress — have lost recent assembly elections, amplifying perceptions of a shaky coalition. Political observers warned the rupture dents bloc cohesion. “Congress has been adopting a high-handed attitude with allies… This trend would weaken the united opposition to BJP in 2029,” said commentator Suguna Diwakar. The shift could also make regional partners wary of Congress prioritising its own electoral calculus over alliance arithmetic. Congress netas said the gamble could pay if TVK is folded into the INDIA framework. The day’s tightrope was evident when Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi reached out to both DMK chief M K Stalin and Vijay after the results, as Congress sought to manage state-level realignments without capsizing the broader anti-BJP platform.

Mamata Banerjee KOLKATA: Once heavily guarded Kalighat neighbourhood has begun resembling a throughfare and even a theatre for political violence in some pockets as authorities dismantle security paraphernalia like police kiosks from the area where outgoing CM Mamata Banerjee and Trinamool MP Abhishek Banerjee reside, a drawdown described by some residents as unsettling and others as a relief. On Wednesday, police began withdrawing peripheral security arrangements from key addresses linked to the Trinamool brass. Beginning around 6.30 am, barricades, police kiosks, scanner machines and surveillance installations were dismantled across locations, including at three premises of Abhishek Banerjee at 188B, Harish Mukherjee Road, 121, Kalighat Road and 9, Camac Street. At his Harish Mukherjee Road home, ‘Shantiniketan’, police were seen removing layers of security infrastructure that had, over the past decade, turned the premises into one of the most tightly guarded political addresses in the state. The move followed a similar rollback outside Mamata Banerjee’s residence a day earlier, shortly after the electoral outcome. Officials said both leaders continue to enjoy Z-plus security, and that the current exercise pertains only to peripheral deployment and publicly installed infrastructure. As for the other residents of the area, some felt it was “unsettling” while others expressed relief at the dismantling of long-standing restrictions.About the AuthorTamaghna BanerjeeTamaghna Banerjee, a reporter from Kolkata, covers crime, aviation, human rights and politics.

Officials said both leaders continue to enjoy Z-plus security, and that the current exercise pertains only to peripheral deployment and publicly installed infrastructure. As for the other residents of the area, some felt it was “unsettling” while others expressed relief at the dismantling of long-standing restrictions.About the AuthorTamaghna BanerjeeTamaghna Banerjee, a reporter from Kolkata, covers crime, aviation, human rights and politics.

The vehicle with damaged side window through which Adhikari’s PA Chandranath Rath (inset) was shot in Bengal’s North 24 Parganas KOLKATA: Motorcycle-borne assailants fatally shot BJP’s Bengal face Suvendu Adhikari’s personal assistant Chandranath Rath at pointblank range and critically injured another aide, Buddhadeb Bera, inside their car in a Madhyamgram lane, close to Kolkata airport, around 10.20pm Wednesday. Rath, part of Adhikari’s close circle for at least five years, was headed home when another vehicle waylaid his Scorpio and a gunman in a motorcycle fired multiple rounds at him and Bera through the front passenger window, police said. The victim, in his early 40s, was declared dead on arrival at a nearby hospital. The killing capped a day of post-poll political violence in parts of the state, prompting the BJP brass to direct its cadres to restore calm on the ground. Investigators said they were unsure of the motive behind the attack on Rath and his colleague, saying they wouldn’t rule out either personal or political enmity. The shocking crime occurred 48 hours after Bengal gave BJP a massive mandate with 207 seats in the 294-member assembly. Adhikari, who retained his Nandigram seat and also defeated outgoing CM Mamata Banerjee in Bhowanipore, reached the site where his aide was shot dead around midnight but is still to issue a statement.Bengal BJP president Samik Bhattacharya said, “This was expected only from Trinamool. They are responsible for this death.” Trinamool condemned the incident, calling for “a courtmonitored CBI investigation” to ensure those responsible were “identified and brought to justice without delay”. Rath and Bera were headed to the former’s Michaelnagar home in Madhyamgram from Kolkata when the incident took place. According to police, the incident took place at 10:20 pm on the Jessore Road stretch in Doharia, Madhyamgram. This spot is barely 3km from the NSCBI airport. Eyewitnesses said four bikes carrying eight persons were trailing Rath and Bera’s car after they crossed the airport stretch. They said at Doharia, which is slightly desolate, a car from the other side blocked the one in which Rath and Bera were travelling. Police have seized this car. The two bikes came over near the car and started firing indiscriminately. Around eight-nine rounds were fired by the bikers, with three bullets hitting Rath on his chest, stomach and head. Bera was also hit. The bikers, these eyewitnesses claimed, did not wear helmets and drove away after firing. Locals took both Rath and Bera to a local private hospital. Rath was declared brought dead and Bera is being treated. Police have been unable to speak to Bera as he is being treated. A police officer said, “All we can say at this moment is that we have collected some CCTV footage. The footage show some bike-borne miscreants fleeing. The images are being verified.” The officer said, “It appears the assailants were specifically targeting Rath. We are not clear of the motive.” Senior Bengal police officers are now at the spot. The crime scene has been cordoned off.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideos‘Congress Will Be Wiped Out Everywhere’: DMK Warns Cong Over Support To Vijay’s TVK2 Dead, 200+ FIRs, 433 Arrested, Over 1100 Detained In Post-Poll Violence In West Bengal‘Asked Me To Pay Rs 5 Crore’: Ex-Cricketer Makes Shocking Claim On TMC After Bengal PollsPakistan Navy Helps Stranded Indian Ship In Arabian Sea After Distress Call: ReportTVK Emerges Largest, But Vijay Needs Critical Backing To Form Govt; Will He Succeed?Election Commission Blocks 68 Lakh Cyber Attacks; ECINET Handles Record Traffic on Counting Day‘Directly Promoting ISI Narrative’: BJP Slams Bhagwant Mann’s Remark On Punjab BlastsIndia–Vietnam Upgrade Ties | Billion Trade Push, UPI Link & Big Strategic Signal to China‘Shortage Of Funds’: Akhilesh Yadav Reveals Why SP Ended Contract With I-PAC Ahead Of UP PollsTeesta Issue Explained: Can Bengal Result Unlock Deal As China Factor Raises Stakes123PhotostoriesHow to make Oats, Besan, and Chaach Chilla for a light summer breakfastAre you storing fruits all wrong?
