KCET 2025: The Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) has revised the exam schedule for the Kannada language test, which is a part of the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) 2025. This change affects only Horanadu and Gadinadu Kannadiga candidates.

The test was initially set for April 18, 2025, but has now been rescheduled for April 15, 2025, to accommodate candidates observing Good Friday. The decision was made in response to requests from candidates and follows government directions.

"The Kannada Language Test was originally scheduled for 18-04-2025 for Horanadu and Gadinadu Kannadiga candidates," stated an official KEA announcement. Given that Good Friday falls on the same day, some candidates asked for a change. In accordance with government directives, the exam will now take place on April 15, 2025.
