The National Testing Agency has postponed the conduction of NEET-UG 2020 exams which was formerly scheduled to be conducted on 3rd May 2020. This delay came after numerous Examination boards and Ministries introspected the scenario, assessing the current circumstance that perhaps can entail changes in the timeline already set.
For now, students can make note that the exam is tentatively suggested to be conducted in the last week of May 2020. The official statement regarding the exact date and other details shall be declared post evaluating the condition later on.
Consequently, NEET Admit cards 2020 which were scheduled to be released on the official website on 27th March, will now as a result of the delay be issued later after gauging the condition post 15th April 2020 only.
