JNVST 2022: JNV Class 9 Application Deadline Extended up to November 15, Exam on April 9

The Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti (NVS) has extended the registration deadline for the Lateral Entry Selection test (LEST) 2022 for admission in class 9. While earlier the registration deadline was set for October 31, it has now been extended to November 15. The latest date extension comes as a huge relief for Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya (JNV) aspirants who could not register due to some reason. Interested candidates who are yet to register for NVS LEST 2022 may do it on the official portal at navodaya.gov.in.

The written test for the selection of candidates is slated to be conducted at JNV of the concerned district or at any other NVS-designated centre on April 9, 2022.
