The Supreme Court will be hearing petitions filed by students both for and against the postponement of the JEE Main 2020 and NEET 2020 exam.
The Supreme Court on Monday dismissed petition seeking postponement of the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main and National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test (NEET).
” There is no ground to interfere with policy decision. The postponement of the NEET/JEE will put the career of students in peril”, said a bench headed by Justice Arun Mishra.
Referring to the coronavirus pandemic, the plea filed by advocate Alakh Alok Srivastava on behalf of 11 students from 11 states across the country, has sought quashing of July 3 notices issued by the National Testing Agency (NTA), by which it was decided to conduct Joint Entrance Examination (Main) April 2020 and National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET)-Undergraduate exams in September.
