KEA extends UG NEET 2026 application deadline to Aug 7 after server glitches disrupt services

Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) has extended the deadline for UG NEET students to link roll numbers and submit new applications until August 7 due to server issues caused by heavy traffic. Students also reported problems with document verification slot bookings, while KEA said walk-ins would be allowed and further instructions would follow. The Kannada language test for eligible candidates has been postponed to August 9. Medical counselling schedules remain unchanged, though KEA is awaiting the medical seat matrix from NMC.
