In the interest of NEET aspirants, several states have also resumed their local transport services to help students reach exam centres without any hassle.
State of West Bengal earlier decided to run special services on September 13 to help NEET aspirants reach the examination centres. In order to avail the service, the state government has informed that the candidates and those accompanying them can use the NEET admit card.
This year the NEET examination has been postponed multiple times and is now finally scheduled to be conducted during the ongoing pandemic with the measures announced by the Union Health Ministry of India.
