NEW DELHI: IIT JEE 2020 paper has finally commenced today, coming over all the ruckus and commotion over postponements and safety issues. NTA has set up 660 exam centres for JEE Main 2020 across 224 exam cities of the country. A total of 8.5 lakh candidates had applied for JEE Main 2020 April/September exam. NTA, the organising body of the JEE Main, is stringently following the standard operating procedure for conducting the exam amid covid-19 at every exam centre.
As per the reports we’ve received, social distancing is strictly being followed at every exam centre, candidates are sanitised before entering the exam centre, temperature of candidates is checked and a fresh mask is provided at the entry. Frisking is through metal detectors and no-touch policy is adopted.
NTA increased the number of exam centres across the country in order to have less number of candidates in any particular centre. Students are seated at a gap of one seat or 6-feet distance. Gathering inside or outside the exam centre is not permitted. Candidates are allowed to carry only the required items inside the exam hall.
Difficulty in reaching exam centre
Many candidates are seen posting issues on their inability to reach their exam centres due to unavailability of transport services. All such candidates are informed that they can register online for a ride at eduride.in portal or call at the number 9311323756 for requesting the arrangements to reach exam centres.
Many state governments and voluntary organisations have also come up and are providing the facility to help candidates reach their exam centres.
