"In such a way, it does not seem to be appropriate to put around 4.5 lakh students in risk to assess the security of students without. The UP Government is requested to ponder over the exam program, keeping in mind the current circumstances."

Several other opposition political leaders too have questioned the holding of the entrance exams at this juncture.

Over 4.5 lakh students were expected to participate in these offline exams to be held in two sessions throughout the state.
