What did the NTA Director General say?
NTA Director General Subodh Kumar Singh said that 1,600 students from about six centers were given wrong question papers and two to three students got torn OMR sheets, due to which they got less time to take the exam. Our instructions are that if the exam starts late, students should be given full time, as has happened in most centers, but at some centers the exam was conducted in such a way that students could not get full time.
The affected students approached the High Court demanding re-examination or compensatory marks. We replied to the High Court that we formed a committee of experts to look into the issue of lack of time. The decision was taken on the basis of its recommendation.
