Overview
- AIIMS has issued INI-CET January 2026 admit cards on aiimsexams.ac.in, with downloads via the candidate portal using registration ID and password.
- Candidates report being allotted centres hundreds of kilometres from their residences or preferred states, citing travel of roughly 300–700 km in some cases.
- FAIMS formally asked AIIMS to reassign nearer centres and reissue admit cards, warning that short-notice travel could prevent many from reaching test venues.
- An informal WhatsApp and social-media survey cited in reports suggests far more candidates were placed outside their first-choice state than in their nearest city.
- The computer-based exam for entry to postgraduate programmes at AIIMS, JIPMER, PGIMER and NIMHANS remains set for November 9, with printed admit card and valid photo ID required for entry.
