JEE (Main) offline test in Hyderabad

Posted On: 27/10/2013 Updated On:

Hyderabad: The woes of JEE (Main) aspirants from the city are likely to end next year.

The Union HRD ministry is "actively considering" to set up test centres in Hyderabad for conducting the offline JEE (Mains) test in April 2014, for which there will be a large number of applicants from the city. Thousands of students from the city have been facing severe hardships in appearing for the JEE offline exam in the last two years as there were no test centres in the city.

Nearly 70,000 students and their parents from the city were forced to travel to Warangal, Khammam, Guntur etc to appear for the test. Test centres for the online mode of JEE (Mains) are available in the city since 2012, but there were no takers for that.

The large scale influx of Hyderabad students to these tier-II cities had been causing traffic jams and accommodation problems. Parents had to incur huge expenses for travel, boading and lodging facilities.

In 2012, several city students missed the test in Warangal as they got stuck in the traffic jams caused by the heavy influx of students on the day of the exam.
Sources in the CBSE, which conducts the JEE (Mains) exam said that Union minister for HRD Pallam Raju had recently written to the Board to consider setting up of exam centres in Hyderabad, and it was under "active consideration."

The Joint Admission Board (JAB) had recently released the schedule for JEE (Mains) 2014. The test will be held on April 6, 2014 and the results will be announced on May 3, 2014. Applications will be accepted from November 15 to December 16.
