Gujarat, May 14, 2025: As the India-Pakistan conflict escalates following Operation Sindoor, major entrance exams and university assessments have been postponed across multiple states, including Gujarat. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and COMEDK have officially delayed exams in light of regional security concerns. With tensions mounting and cross-border hostilities ongoing, students are questioning whether upcoming exams like CUET, JEE Advanced, and NEET PG might also be affected.
📍 What’s Been Officially Postponed in Gujarat
