Exams were not conducted in a single place, students need to travel a lot.
Moreover students in Containment zones can’t travel to other places due to lack of transport. There’s a high chance of spreading virus.#PostponeJEE_NEETinCovid

From a focused student’s point of view this is such a chaotic situation. Though unprecedented.
