Conversations over restarting education continues, the Supreme Court has rejected the plea seeking postponement of NEET and JEE exams. The question as to can we pull off this mammoth task and if the exams are conducted via offline mode, can we ensure the safety of the students? Should India look at re-opening the educational institutions?

He also says that parents, police, transport workers, and others are involved in the exam process will eventually be at risk. Students want to give exams without being stressed about their lives.
