CUET UG 2024: What NTA has to say
“This has only happened for the students who had Delhi as the first choice of exam centre but were allotted Faridabad as the exam centre. These students will be given a chance on May 29 now, along with other Delhi candidates. The students who selected Faridabad and have been allotted Faridabad did not face any problems. The exam is being conducted normally, without any issues in the rest of the country too,” a senior official from NTA told indianexpress.com.
However, the National Testing Agency in its notification to reschedule to CUET in Delhi centres does not mention the above fact.
“It is being informed to all the concerned candidates and stakeholders that due to unavoidable reasons, the test papers (Chemistry -306, Biology – 304, English – 101, and General Test – 501) which were earlier scheduled on May 15, 2024 stand postponed for the candidates appearing in Centres across Delhi only. The examination will now be held on 29 of May 2024. The revised Admit Cards will be issued for candidates appearing in center across Delhi,” read a statement from the notice.
The notice also read that the exam centres scheduled in all other cities across the country (including Gurugram, Ghaziabad, Faridabad, and Noida) and abroad will be conducted as per the earlier schedule.
