The first pandemic, and then clashing of UGC NET exam dates with other entrance tests had made the exam conducting body – NTA – to reschedule the exam again and again. After multiple postponements, the exam was last scheduled to be held between October 17 to 25, however, it was again deferred till further notice. As per the current status, there are no final exam dates. This has made the NET aspirants anxious who are demanding a final decision on their exam.

Candidates have now taken to social media platforms to voice their concerns. They demanded the Education Minister release the final dates of the exam as soon as possible. They have asked UGC to release the admit cards 10-15 days prior to the exams. They also demanded that 30 days’ notice be given to them before the exams and not hold it suddenly so that they are able to prepare.
