The number of JEE applicants this year was 8.58 lakh and not 18 lakh as claimed by BJP MP Dr Subramanian Swamy, clarified Union Minister of Education Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank'. Pokhriyal was responding to an earlier tweet by Swamy, where he claimed that out of the 18 lakh JEE students who downloaded their admit cards, only 8 lakh appeared for the exams. Swamy added that this was a disgrace to the nation.
'I would like to place some facts on the record regarding JEE (Main) exams. The number of applicants for #JEEMains stands at 8.58 lakh, not 18 lakh as you tweeted,' tweeted Pokhriyal. He added, 'Out of 8.58 lakh #JEEMains applicants, 6.35 lakh appeared for the exam. Central & respective State Governments assured all possible assistance to the students, for which I compliment all State Governments as well. This entire effort displayed the spirit of cooperative federalism.'
