Over 200,000 students, who registered to appear for the now-postponed National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Testpost graduate (NEET-PG) examination on Sunday, are uncertain on the road ahead for them.

He said, "Some had even reached there after travelling for 15 to 18 hours and suddenly the announcement came last night."
