Students are urging the central government to postpone the medical entrance exam National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) UG 2021 to October. The National Testing Agency (NTA) is all set to conduct the entrance exam on September 12 this year.

The students have been posting their opinions on the social media platform Twitter using the hashtag #PostponeNEETUGSeptToOctober. The hashtag is trending on Twitter for the last few days. As per students, they need more time to prepare as per the changed test paper pattern and also need time to submit the application forms.

The new paper pattern of NEET-UG 2021 will have one section of the question paper as mandatory consisting of 35 questions and another section will have 15 questions, out of which the students need to do only 10 questions.
