New Delhi: The Ministry of Education has made it clear that the competitive exams administered by the National Testing Agency (NTA) scheduled between July and August 2022 will not get postponed despite student demands citing numerous reasons, as per TOI reports. NTA will be conducting three major entrance exams including the Common University Entrance Test-UG (CUET-UG), the National Eligibility Cumulative Entrance Test-UG (NEET-UG) and the Joint Entrance Examination-Main (JEE Main).
According to the Education Ministry none of the three examinations will be rescheduled. They said that in contrast to 2020 and 2021, when exams had to be repeatedly postponed due to the increased spread of COVID-16 virus, negatively impacted the academic calendars. All organizations and institutions are reportedly working to restore the academic year to its pre-pandemic state.
