The delays in the CUET-UG's results has been a source of controversy due to allegations of irregularities in competitive exams such as the NEET and NET. The CUET-UG exam, which was conducted in a hybrid format for first time, was amidst difficulties with logistics, which led to the exam being cancelled in Delhi the evening before the rescheduled date.
Initially the NTA declared that the third edition of the CUET-UG was expected to be completed in 7 days, without normalization of scores, because all exams will be conducted in one shift.
This year was the year that it was the NTA was conducting the CUET exam for UG students from May 15 through May 29 in a hybrid method (CBT as well as Pen-paper) in various examination centers located in 379 places. More than 13.4 thousand candidates took the exam, with a goal of admission to 261 colleges across the country.
In the initial edition of 2022, the exam was afflicted by technical difficulties. In addition, due to the testing subjects over multiple shifts, a normalization of scores was required to ensure the accuracy of the results.
As a result of alleged irregularities at NEET and NET the government has changed NTA Director General Subodh Singh and established a high-level committee led by the former ISRO Chief R Radhakrishnan to ensure the integrity of the exam. In both cases, NEET along with NET are subject to CBI investigation because of allegations of paper leaks and deficient exam integrity.
