NEET to be on May 20 for the students who missed the exam due to train-delay



A total of 365 students from Karnataka will get a chance to appear for the NEET 2019 exam on May 20 as they missed the exam on Sunday due to 7 hour delay in the train running from Karnataka to Bengaluru. "Happy to announce that #Karnataka students who missed #NEET exam due to railway delay will get another chance," tweeted Javdekar. Mr. Javadekar responded a day after state CM Kumaraswamy urged him to hold a re-test for the students who missed the exam due to delay in the train. "Thank you @PrakashJavdekar and @HRDMinistry for considering the request and helping our students," re-tweeted Kumaraswamy. The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducted the NEET exam every year to grant admissions to the students in state-run and private medical and dental colleges across the country. Students who travelled in Hampi express reached Bengaluru at 2:36 pm instead of 7:00 am while the test began at 2:00 pm. The students also staged a protest demo outside the railway station for missing the test. "The students could not reach the test centers across the city in time and missed it," a South Western Railway (SWR) official admitted on Sunday.
