Candidates appearing for the Rajasthan State Eligibility Test (SET-2026) on Sunday faced severe disruption due to administrative mismanagement. Delays in distributing question papers sparked intense anger among aspirants, leading to widespread protests outside examination centers. Following the chaotic scenes, authorities have intervened and decided to reconduct the exam for students registered at two affected centers in Jaipur.
Uproar at Pink City Academy Over Distribution Delay
The situation escalated rapidly at the Pink City Academy exam center, situated on Banar Road in Jaipur, on Sunday morning. The test was officially scheduled to commence at 11:00 AM, but candidates were left waiting without question papers even past 11:15 AM. When candidates questioned the delay, the center staff failed to provide any clear or satisfactory explanation. Left with no answers, hundreds of frustrated students walked out of their exam halls and gathered outside the premises, raising slogans against the administration.
Re-Examination Scheduled for Disrupted Centers
Following the reports of late paper delivery and subsequent protests by candidates, a crucial decision has been made regarding the exam's integrity. A re-examination will be conducted for the candidates of the two specific centers in Jaipur where the delay occurred. This decision aims to ensure fairness for all aspirants whose crucial exam time was compromised by logistical failures. The administration is expected to release a detailed schedule and new dates for these centers soon, alongside enhanced digital tracking measures to prevent such lapses in the future.
