Bengaluru Traffic Police clear the Congress rally of responsibility in the case of a student who misses a NEET exam. Police investigations, including CCTV footage and route analysis, indicate the aspirant leaves home later than planned and takes a longer route. As a result, she reaches the exam center after the 1:30 PM cut-off time. The development follows claims by the student’s parents that a political rally caused congestion and affected her commute.
Police say traffic conditions were normal at the relevant time and that personnel were deployed to support smooth movement for students. They also state that the missed exam is linked to the student’s late start and route choice rather than any rally-related disruption. The episode triggers a political dispute, with the BJP citing the rally as a cause for “chaos,” while the police fact-check concludes that the rally did not play a role. The police findings rely on the sequence of the student’s travel observed in CCTV and corroborating details from the route taken.
