The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced a one-time examination for 3,765 students who were unable to complete the Common University Entrance Test (CUET-UG) due to technical glitches. These issues arose during the exams held on May 28, which were rescheduled to May 30 because of Bakrid. Complaints about disruptions were reported, particularly in the first shift, leading to delays attributed to Tata Consultancy Services, the company responsible for the exam logistics. Although 95% of candidates managed to finish their exams, the NTA acknowledged that the affected students had exited the exam centers before the tests could resume. In response to the situation, the NTA expressed regret and assured that compensatory time would be provided. Opposition leaders, including Congress's Rahul Gandhi, have condemned the government for its handling of multiple exams, claiming that the repeated failures reflect a broader incompetence in the education system. The NTA will announce the new date for the rescheduled exam soon.
