The body which was proposed to bring uniformity in evaluating education prowess, the National Testing Agency (NTA), has just proved unequal to the job and shattered confidence of a generation of students in the fairness of our education system.
First it was the medical entrance examination (NEET), then the national eligibility test for lectureship (UGCNET) and then the examination for the entrance of the students into the undergraduate programmes of the various government universities (CUET). We are well past July 15, the sacrosanct date when the Delhi University would start a new session. This year even the admission process is still to start.
On the Friday just gone by, NTA held a re-test for over 1,000 CUET UG candidates, following complaints from candidates, including issues of time loss due to the distribution of the wrong question paper. This has further delayed the declaration of results which was originally scheduled to be released on June 30.
