'Why allow someone 5 minutes late but not 15?': Heartbreaking videos of students crying after being denied entry to NEET exam hall surfaces

Heartbreaking videos of several students crying outside NEET exam centres after being denied entry have surfaced online, triggering widespread outrage on social media.

In one of the videos, three girl students can be seen crying after missing their opportunity to appear for the examination in Bengaluru, Karnataka. One X user claimed that one of the students had scored over 680 marks out of 720 in a previous NEET examination, yet was not allowed to appear for the re-NEET because she allegedly arrived late.

In another video, a father is seen repeatedly hitting his head against a gate before collapsing after his daughter was reportedly denied entry to the examination hall. He can later be seen lying on the ground and shaking following the impact.

The videos have sparked a heated debate online.
