ABDULLAH TURNS UP FOR NEET RE-TEST AFTER ABU DHABI CENTRE CONTROVERSY A emotional scene unfolded at a NEET retest centre in Nagpur as Abdullah Mohammad Talib, a student from Vidarbha, arrived to take the examination on Sunday. The incident followed a controversy over his admit card, which mistakenly listed Abu Dhabi as the examination centre instead of his preferred locations in Vidarbha. Moments after clearing security checks and entering the hall, Abdullah’s father, Dr. Talib, broke down while speaking to reporters, expressing deep concern over his son’s future and the family’s ordeal. Dr. Talib revealed that the family had endured days of anxiety and uncertainty after the centre allotment issue. He described how the entire family had tried to motivate Abdullah, who had been deeply affected by the incident. His mother, he said, had even fallen ill after witnessing his distress. “The examination is critical for his future,” Dr. Talib said, adding that Abdullah aspires to pursue an MBBS degree and later move to the United Kingdom for postgraduate medical studies. The father expressed hope that the exam would help Abdullah regain his confidence and move forward with renewed optimism. The controversy arose when Abdullah’s admit card, issued by the National Testing Agency (NTA), showed Abu Dhabi as the examination centre, despite the family’s clear preference for Nagpur, Bhandara, and Wardha. Dr. Talib alleged that unauthorized access to the candidate’s profile might have occurred. He explained that Abdullah and he had filled out the application form together in February and selected their preferred cities when the portal reopened for centre allotment. However, from June 14 onwards, they faced repeated login issues, with the system displaying “wrong credentials.#nagpur #abu_dhabi #national_testing_agency #abdullah_mohammad_talib #dr_talib
Nagpur NEET Aspirant Faces Controversy Over Abu Dhabi Exam Centre Assignment A NEET aspirant from Nagpur, Abdullah Mohammad Talib, faced a distressing situation after his admit card for the retest was mistakenly assigned to Abu Dhabi instead of his preferred examination centres in Vidarbha. The incident sparked an emotional response from his father, Dr. Talib, who expressed deep concern over the error and its impact on his son’s future. The controversy unfolded at the NEET retest centre in Ajni’s Kendriya Vidyalaya on Sunday, where Abdullah arrived to take the exam, a day after the issue gained public attention. Dr. Talib revealed that Abdullah and his family had meticulously selected Nagpur, Bhandara, and Wardha as their preferred examination cities. However, when the portal reopened for centre allotment, they encountered repeated login issues, with the system displaying “wrong credentials” for days. After finally accessing their account, they discovered the admit card listed Abu Dhabi as the examination centre, a location neither Abdullah nor his family had ever intended. “My son does not even have a passport, nor do we have any relatives in Abu Dhabi,” Dr. Talib said, urging authorities to investigate the possibility of unauthorized access to their profile. The family’s frustration was compounded by the broader context of the NEET paper leak controversy earlier in the month, which had already shaken Abdullah’s confidence. Despite preparing for the retest, the admit card error dealt a fresh blow to his morale. Dr. Talib emphasized the emotional toll on his son, stating that the family had endured “days of anxiety and uncertainty” following the center-allotment issue.#national_testing_agency #neet_retest #abdullah_mohammad_talib #dr_talib #kendriya_vidyalaya_ajni
Nagpur Aspirant Allotted Abu Dhabi as NEET Re-Test Centre, Family in Shock An 18-year-old NEET aspirant from Nagpur, Abdullah Mohammad Talib, faced a major disruption after his recently issued hall ticket for the re-test scheduled on June 21 listed Abu Dhabi, a location 2,500 kilometers away, as his examination center. The hall ticket, generated on June 14, named the Abu Dhabi Indian School as the designated venue, leaving the family in shock. The Talib family immediately contacted the National Testing Agency (NTA) helpline, where officials assured them the error would be corrected. However, with only two days remaining until the exam, the mistake remains unresolved. The student’s family expressed deep concern over the logistical challenges, including the need to arrange travel documents and flight tickets for Talib, who does not yet have a passport. His parents worried about completing passport formalities and booking flights at such short notice. Despite these hurdles, they are still considering sending him to Abu Dhabi to avoid losing the opportunity to take the exam. Talib, already under stress after the NEET paper leak incident, faced additional trauma from the hall ticket error. The family reported constant communication with the NTA helpline, but officials have not responded to queries from The Times of India. Sources indicated that the NTA is preparing to conduct a mock drill on Saturday, and widespread changes to the exam centers may not be feasible at this stage. Meanwhile, several parents reported that their children’s exam centers were altered in the hall tickets, even though they had not opted for any changes.#nagpur #nta #national_testing_agency #abu_dhabi_indian_school #abdullah_mohammad_talib
