Postpone NEET and JEE: Student community unites, says no exams in COVID

Will NEET 2020 be postponed? Should NEET 2020 be postponed? So many questions, yet no clarification from the authorities. Distressed students come together in support and demand answers to their questions.

The significance which is in unity is an eternal wonder.

-Rabindranath Tagore

It has been well established by now that the student community wants the entrance examinations for this year to be postponed further. After the announcement to cancel the board examinations for Class 12 was made on June 24, students have been closely monitoring the speeches of HRD Minister, Dr Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’. In the past 48 hours, Dr Pokhriyal had two live webinars. He even appeared on ZEE News to talk about the current state of education. However, the minister refrained from discussing the fate of either NEET 2020 or JEE during these live sessions. Both these sessions were bombarded with questions regarding NEET 2020 exam dates from the curious students. Disappointed they turned to the social media platforms to express their dissatisfaction.
