Supreme Court dismisses plea related to NEET & JEE 2020 Exam

Students across the country are requesting the government to postpone the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) and National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) due in September due to the Corona pandemic. But despite all this, the Supreme Court has given permission to conduct the examination.

Explain that the National Testing Agency (NTA), which conducts these exams, has also disagreed with the demand to postpone the examination.

No support from Supreme Court:

The students had approached the Supreme Court due to the ongoing Corona epidemic across the country, but the Supreme Court refused to cancel and postpone the exam. At the same time, the National Testing Agency (NTA) said, if the examination is postponed this year, it will affect the academic calendar of next year. At the same time, leaders of the opposition party are also joining this issue, who are urging the Modi government to listen to the students' demands.
