Actor Sonu Sood, the lone messiah during Covid-times, has offered to help students who may have to appear for the JEE and NEET exams. While student groups, and the Opposition parties demanded a deferral to the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) and the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) due to the ongoing pandemic, and flood, the Indian government maintains the tests will be held as scheduled.
Sonu Sood, in a statement last week, said, “Students appearing for #NEET #JEE 2020 I am standing by you! If you are stuck anywhere, let me know your areas of travel. I will help you reach your examination centres. No one should miss their exam because of resources.” He also responded to an emotional video of a student in tears about having to appear for the tests.
Sonu wrote, “In case, #JEE_NEET happens: To all the students who will be appearing & are struck in flood hit areas of Bihar, Assam & Gujarat. Do let me know ur areas of travel. Trying to make ur travel arrangements to reach ur examination centres. No one should miss their exam bec of resources.”
