As NEET-UG 2023 exam is scheduled to be conducted on May 7 (Sunday), the Karnataka BJP has made some changes in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s two-day roadshow in Bengaluru, ahead of the state Assembly polls, by scheduling a longer event on May 6 and a shorter event on May 7, Union Minister of State Shobha Karandlaje said on Friday.
“PM Narendra Modi’s roadshow will be on May 6 and 7, preparations are on for it. We shared information in that regard with the public through the press. However, you (media) people informed us about the NEET exams on May 7 at 2 pm, and the 26 km roadshow will cause inconvenience for (students writing) exams,” Karandlaje said.
While addressing the media, Karandlaje said, PM was informed about the same, and he asked us to ensure that no inconvenience is caused to even a single NEET aspirant going to the examination centre at any cost.
So the prime minister directed the state BJP to make changes in the schedule of the event, she said, as desired by him, several changes have been made to the event.
“Earlier we had said on May 6 that there would be a 10km road show, and on May 7 it would be 26 km. Changing that we will be now holding a long-distance one of 26 km on May 6 from Someshwar Bhavan RBI Ground in Bengaluru South to Malleshwaram’s Sankey Tank between 10 am to 1.30 pm, and a shorter one of about 10 km between Kempegowda statue at Thippasandra to Trinity circle, that can be completed soon, will be held on Sunday from 10 am to 11/11:30 am, she said.
Further, it was noted that not many NEET exam centres are located on the stretch of the roadshow on Sunday, Karandlaje said if there are students coming from that region, upon showing their NEET 2023 admit cards, police officials have been directed to make sure that they reach examination centres on time.
