Why JEE Exam 2020 could be extended?

This is not the first time that the JEE main examination dates could be extended. It has happened on previous occasion, too. The reason for extension this time is because of UPSC NDA Exam 2020 is falling on the same day. There are thousands of applicants who have filed forms for both the examinations. The possibility of two examinations on the same day is creating new problems for the aspirants.  

The Human Resource Development Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank has said that he has asked the Director General of NTA to ensure that the examination dates for both these exams do not clash.

The aspirants for JEE Main and UPSC NDA examinations had urged the Union Minister to look into the matter.

The requests made by the students has been received by the ministry, Union Minister Pokhriyal said. An appeal has been made with respect to the examination dates of both these exams clashing with each other. The Minister has asked students not to worry about this.
