Before it was put as an official notification on the NTA's website, The HRD Minister did announce that he will conduct another live session on the 17th with the Teachers, Parents and Students regarding issues of importance. Also no concrete decision was taken regarding the syllabus and so it must have been taken down. There will be a live interaction session on December 17th with the HRD Minister and the parents, teachers and Students. May be a decision will be taken then.  NTA has not released any official information regarding JEE Mains 2021 yet.But what we know so far is that JEE Mains will be conducted 4 times a year starting from February until May and Candidates can choose to attend any one of the sessions or all the sessions.  So please wait to hear from NTA or MHRD regarding this.

NTA has not released any official information regarding JEE 2021 yet. It might be scheduled for February 2021 and June 2021 but the application process might begin a month or 2 late may be in January. So please wait to hear from NTA or MHRD regarding this.  To qualify for JEE Mains, there is no minimum aggregate criteria. But if you want to join NITs, IIITs or CFTIs then you should score a minimum aggregate of 75% only in your 12th. 11th marks aren't considered. And then to appear for JEE Advanced which is the gateway for admission to IITs, you will need to fulfill the 75% aggregate condition. Now it is 75% for General Category and 65% for Reserved Categories. So how much you score in 12th is what matters to secure your eligibility for NITs, IIITs, CFTIs and JEE Advanced.
