JEE Main 2023: Bombay high court to hear 75% eligibility plea today

JEE Main 2023: The Bombay High Court will hear the JEE Main 2023 75 Percent Eligibility Criteria Plea today, May 2, 2023. The previous hearing, scheduled for April 24, 2023, ruled out the third attempt at JEE Mains 2023. During the earlier April 24 hearing, the Government and NTA stated that a third attempt would not be given to candidates because it would be difficult to conduct another one. The hearing for the JEE Main 75 Percent Eligibility Criteria will be heard today.

The NTA removed the JEE Main 75% criteria last year as an one-time measure due to academic loss during the COVID-19 pandemic. The petition also stated that the NTA in the past used to declare the IIT JEE Main 2023 exam dates two to three months prior to the examination. However, the announcement of exams in such short notice will not give enough time for preparation.
