Shrishti Dubey, a NEET aspirant, suffered nine fractured ribs and lung injuries in a road accident a week before her exam. Despite her condition, she remained determined to appear for the NEET examination. The National Testing Agency (NTA) made special arrangements for her, including a separate room, medical support, and a standby ambulance at the examination centre.

The NTA stepped in after her father requested their help, and Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan also spoke to Shrishti's parents to offer his support. This comes after a similar incident in Rajasthan, where a student was initially denied entry to her NEET-UG re-examination centre due to her attire, but was ultimately allowed to enter after the NTA clarified their guidelines.
