JEE-Main 2021 likely to be held in the month of February

The Joint Entrance Exam (JEE)-Main 2021 is likely to get delayed and will be held in February instead of January, according to officials.

The reason for the postponement has been cited the latest surge in COVID-19 cases. 

"As the engineering admission is still underway, it is being considered that JEE-Main of 2021 be pushed to February. This will give a chance to students who were not satisfied with the choice of branch or their score," a senior official was quoted by PTI. "Rising number of coronavirus cases is also a factor," the official added.

An official announcement of the exam date will be made soon and the application process will begin next month.
