Under the proposed two-year contract, security personnel will safeguard sensitive exam records and restricted areas using advanced surveillance measures. The tender follows recommendations to strengthen NTA's security framework, while the CBI continues its investigation into the alleged NEET-UG paper leak that led to the exam's cancellation and re-test.
