The Quint spoke to students at an exam centre for the National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test in Delhi’s Mayur Vihar, who expressed satisfaction with social distancing measures and other SOPs being followed inside the centre.

However, large crowds of parents could be seen outside the centre, especially after students started exiting the centre.

All across India, over 15.97 lakh students have registered for NEET, which was conducted from 2 pm to 5 pm across 3,843 centres in the country in adherence to strict coronavirus health guidelines.
