Hello,

Yes, you can wear a hijab for the JEE Mains exam. The National Testing Agency (NTA) allows religious attire, including hijabs, as part of their dress code. However, you may be asked to undergo additional security checks at the exam center to ensure fairness and transparency. It is advisable to inform the authorities during registration or at the center and reach early to avoid any delays.

Hope this helps you,

Thank you

Hello aspirant,

During the JEE exam, applicants are permitted to wear religious headgear such as a turban or hijab by the National Testing Agency (NTA). However, before the exam begins, the invigilator must inspect the hijab or any other headwear to make sure that no hidden cheating materials are present.

Thank you
