There would be no rethinking about postponing JEE and NEET exams, says Education ministry secretary

As per sources, the Ministry of Education Secretary who just returned from a meeting at the PMO said that the Centre’s decision remains the same there would be no rethink on postponing JEE and NEET exams.

The decision of the Centre and NTA to conduct JEE and NEET exams even amidst a pandemic has raised a lot of chaos with many prominent voices of politicians, actors and even Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg.

The chief ministers of seven



non-BJP states are also planning to move Supreme Court on the Centre’s decision to hold JEE and NEET amidst the pandemic.

The education ministry is expected to issue a video statement on the JEE-NEET issue on Thursday at 3 pm. But as per our sources, there is likely going to be no change in the stance of the ministry about the large-scale entrance exams.

More than 16 lakh students have already downloaded JEE and NEET admit cards as per the data from 10 am today.
