Hello Deeksha!
Following the various cheating incidences and malpractices that have taken place during the pre-medical entrance tests in previous years, the conducting body, NTA, has set a number of strict guidelines in order to avoid further happening of such malpractices.
According to those guidelines, candidates are supposed to wear light clothes. The clothes should not have any metallic objects or buttons on them. No jewelry or accessories are allowed. Slippers or low-heeled sandals should be worn. Hair should be tied into a simple ponytail.
Therefore, candidates should not be wearing or carrying anything that arouses suspicion. As o having long nails, there can be ways of hiding any recording devices or communication devices beneath them. So it is advisable, that candidates cut their nails short and avoid any risks of being prevented from giving the exam in lieu of violation of the prescribed dress code.
