The screening test was scheduled for Wednesday (October 7) at Sun Bright English Medium School in Pune and Marathwada Online Exam Centre in Nanded. Mahajyoti managing director Milind Naringe and VJNTI managing director Prashant Vavge announced the cancellation in a press release, citing technical issues.

“Students are suffering due to repeated mismanagement in competitive and scholarship examinations. The technical glitches at the Mahajyoti examination centres in Pune and Nanded are yet another example of the government’s failure to conduct examinations smoothly. The authorities must fix responsibility for this negligence, and Cabinet Minister Atul Save should take responsibility and resign,” said NCP MLA Rohit Pawar.
