Supreme Court adjourns plea seeking extra opportunity for candidates who exhausted JEE Advanced last attempt
India TV NewsA plea seeking an extra opportunity for candidates who had exhausted their last attempt in JEE Advanced 2020 was adjourned by the Supreme Court on Monday. Advocate Mathews J. Nedumpara in the court today said an extra opportunity was required as only two opportunities were given for JEE and because the coronavirus pandemic had also affected the studies of the candidates. The Court, however, was not inclined to hear the matter and informed Nedumpara that the principle being applied in the UPSC matter would also be applied here. Earlier on February 9, the court had reserved the judgement on the petition seeking an additional chance for those candidates who had exhausted their last attempt in the Civil Service Examination held in October 2020.
