FTII to Re-conduct Entrance Exam Nationwide After Disruption at Delhi Centre

The Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) will re-conduct its April 26 entrance examination for all candidates nationwide following operational issues and a major disruption at a Delhi centre that led to exam cancellation there. The decision aims to ensure a fair, uniform assessment and level playing field. Candidates need not re-register, and the institute will announce the new schedule and admit card details at least a month in advance. FTII expressed regret for the inconvenience and assured measures for a smooth re-exam.
