The Story in Brief
NCP (SP) MP Supriya Sule has written to Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi seeking a one-week extension of the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya Selection Test (JNVST) application deadline, citing technical hurdles. The last date for submissions was August 10, but the Hindustan Times reports that newly recognised schools could not register on the online portal, and some applicants faced issues receiving OTPs during login. Sule said genuine rural students should not lose out on quality education due to avoidable glitches.
The Indian Opinion
The JNVST technical glitches are real, but the last-minute scramble also points to poor planning by both schools and the Samiti. The narrative that only government apathy is to blame ignores that many rural students complete registration in time even with limited connectivity. The real test: will the ministry extend the deadline and, more importantly, fix the portal well before the next cycle so no child is left behind?
