#RescheduleNEETUG2021: Students now request the education minister to postpone the exam

NEW DELHI: After the Supreme Court rejected a plea for postponement of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET UG), students are requesting the education minister Dharmendra Pradhan to intervene and reschedule NEET 2021 UG exam date.

Candidates have initiated Twitter campaigns -- #NEET2021, #postponeneet_savestudents and #RescheduleNEETUG2021 -- to express their disappointment over the SC decision. Medical candidates are also tagging the exam authority, National Testing Agency (NTA).

“Students suicide, pattern change, floods, students have a direct clash with NEET, national exams in a row” a student volunteer of Bharat Gyan Vigyan Samiti (BGVS).

Students suicide, pattern change, floods, BSC students have a direct clash with NEET, national exams in a row. There are many obstacles to be faced and, yet NTA doesn't bother. Lot of discrimination between Jee and Neet. WE WANT JUSTICE! Just,#RescheduleNEETUG #SCshiftNEETUG
