Technical glitches in CUET not a setback, won't hurry to merge with JEE, NEET: UGC chairman

The technical glitches encountered in the initial phases of the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) will not affect expansion plans for the crucial exam which includes a proposal to merge it with JEE and NEET, according to UGC Chairman Jagadesh Kumar.

Mr. Kumar said the issues faced in the conduct of the test will be ironed out soon and the exam will be conducted twice a year.

"The technical glitches in initial phases of CUET-UG are not setbacks but lessons. They will be ironed out in the near future and will in no way deter scaling up or expansion plans for the crucial exam," he told PTI in an interview.
