NTA has made an important announcement regarding a change in exam centres for students who were allotted a specific exam centre for the re-NEET exam.
Students who were supposed to attend the exam at “Harivansh Rai Bachchan Cultural Centre” at Prayagraj are now required to attend the exam at “Department of Medieval and Modern History” within the campus of the University of Allahabad.
- The distance between the old and new exam centres is around 2 kms, making it convenient for students to travel.
- The re-NEET exam centre change is mainly because of the continued construction and electricity problems faced at the previously allotted exam centre.
- The admit cards for the students affected by the change have already been issued, so the students need to download the admit card immediately and cross-verify the new exam centre before they travel.
