Rajasthan SET 2026 Jaipur Exam Disrupted by 30-Minute Question Paper Delay
During the Rajasthan State Eligibility Test (SET) 2026 held on September 13, candidates at a Jaipur exam centre protested after question papers arrived nearly 30 minutes late. Frustrated students walked out and boycotted the exam, alleging mismanagement and inadequate communication from officials. Some reported threats when questioning delays, and police involvement led to a notice reportedly declaring the exam cancelled, though no official confirmation has been issued. Approximately 1,008 candidates across two centres were affected, raising concerns about exam conduct and potential re-examinations.
