The exam was completed by 35,788 candidates. One Center that disrupted the examinations was Shri Satya Sai PG College Center, Jaipur. Of the 192 candidates that attended the center, 49 candidates were unable to complete their examinations as a result of a power outage.

The NTA, in its public notice, has reportedly placed the responsibility of the power outage on M/S Eduquity Career Technologies Private Limited, the examination conducting agency. The agency has also reportedly expressed its regret to the affected candidates.

AIAPPGET 2026 Revised Exam Centres

Due to the current disruptions, a few candidates will now appear at a new examination center.

  • Original Center: Shri Satya Sai Pg College Center, Jaipur
  • New Center: Rajasthan College Of Engineering For Women, Jaipur

The revised admit cards will contain all the details required for the rescheduled examinations and candidates are advised to carefully review the revised admit card rather than relying on unofficial sources.

Candidates Who Need to Appear for the AIAPGET Re-Exam

The re-examination is applicable only to the 49 candidates who were unable to complete their scheduled examinations on 22 August due to the power outage at the Jaipur center. This is not a general re-examination for all AIAPGET 2026 candidates.

Candidates whose examinations were completed should not consider the re-examination notice applicable to them, and the NTA notice explicitly indicates the affected candidates.

AIAPGET 2026 Exam Was Conducted across 200 Centres

Disruption at one centre did not affect the examination at other centres, as reported by NTA. For AIAPGET 2026 Shift 1, about 35,837 candidates appeared at 200 centres. AIAPGET is the national level examination for postgraduate AYUSH education that incorporates Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy and provides admission to postgraduate courses in these systems.

The Ayush Admissions Central Counselling Committee (AACCC) conducts counselling for admission to All India Quota seats of AYUSH postgraduate programs in government, government aided, deemed, central universities and national institutions, amongst others.

Affected candidates are directed to:

  • Wait for the new AIAPGET 2026 admit card.
  • Check for the new examination centre and other details carefully.
  • Appear for the examination at 10: AM on 1st September, 2022.

Final Thoughts

This is not simply a disruption, the Jaipur center incident has encouraged the NTA to take a second look at the entire situation. Because of this incident, 49 AIAPGET 2026 candidates will have September 1st in the center of their attention.

Candidates will have to download the revised admit card as soon as it is released to check and confirm the updated center. The venue for the re-examination will be Rajasthan College of Engineering for Women, Jaipur and the examination will begin at 10 AM.
