JNU academic calendars disturbed due to CUET UG result delay, NET cancellation

JNU VC Santishree D Pandit

New Delhi: The cancellation of UGC-NET exams and delay in CUET UG result announcement have jeopardized Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) academic calendars, said Vice-Chancellor Santishree D Pandit on Friday.

However, Santishree denied that the university will shorten winter break and hold extra classes in view of delayed admission, stating that no decision has been taken in this regard.

"JNU faculty will decide how they manage the three different academic calendars (for UG courses, PG courses and PhD programmes)," she said.

"I hope that UGC NET and CUET UG results come fast because that has totally jeopardized our academic calendar so we will have three different Academy calendars, one for the Masters, one for the UG and one for the PhD. And JNU is a bottom-up approach.

So it is the chairpersons, the deans who will decide how they will run these semesters," she added. (with Agency inputs)
