“Some people wrongly assume that the UGCET seat allotment process is very complicated. Unfortunately, this perception has been exploited by certain individuals who have misled candidates and parents in the name of helping with seat allotment. Such fraudulent networks may still be active. To prevent this, ‘Manthana’ (interactive session) aims to provide transparent and reliable information to students and parents,” Dr Sudhakar said.

This ‘UGCET-2025: Interactive Session on Seat Allotment Process’ reflects KEA’s continued commitment to transparency and the use of technology to improve efficiency, while also making the CET admission process more accessible and student-friendly, the Minister noted.
