Students’ demand from NTA: Re-scheduling or alternative slots
Candidates say that this situation is extremely difficult for those students who are appearing in more than one examination. Many students have demanded from NTA that the overlapping dates should be revised again or additional shifts or alternative dates should be given so that no candidate is forced to miss the exam.

CUET UG date clash impacts exam preparation of students
CUET UG is one of the most important undergraduate entrance examinations in the country for admission to central universities across the country.
