NTA Sets September Re-Exam for 49 AIAPGET Candidates
AIAPGET is an entrance test for students who want to study postgraduate courses in traditional Indian medicine and homoeopathy.
The 2026 test was held on August 22.
At one centre in Jaipur, the electricity stopped working during the test.
Because of this, 49 students could not finish their examination.
NTA has given these students another chance to take the test.
Their new test is scheduled for September 1, 2026, starting at 10 a.m.
NTA says the new centre is Rajasthan College of Engineering for Women in Jaipur.
The students will receive revised admit cards with the exact centre, reporting time and instructions.
One report names the original Shri Satya Sai PG College centre as the re-examination venue, so candidates should follow their revised admit cards and official NTA instructions.
NTA will conduct an AIAPGET 2026 re-examination on September 1, 2026, from 10 a.m. onward.
The re-examination is for 49 candidates who could not complete the August 22 test after a power failure in Jaipur.
A total of 192 candidates appeared at the Shri Satya Sai PG College examination centre involved in the disruption.
NTA attributed the power failure to M/s Eduquity Career Technologies Private Limited and suspended the company’s empanelment after issuing a show-cause notice.
The affected candidates are expected to take the re-examination at Rajasthan College of Engineering for Women in Jaipur, with final details provided on revised admit cards.
