Officials state that the UGC-NET exam was cancelled to protect the students' best interests and there were no complaints against it.

Officials from the Education Ministry have revealed that the decision to cancel the UGC-NET exam was not prompted by any complaints, but rather, a proactive measure to protect the students' interests. According to Joint Secretary Govind Jaiswal, while no complaints were received, the Ministry had received inputs from various agencies indicating potential irregularities in the exam. As a result, they took suo motu action to ensure that the integrity of the exam was not compromised.

However, Jaiswal stated that they are unable to share the details of these inputs as the matter has been referred to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for further investigation. It is clear that the Ministry took this step in the best interest of the students, and Jaiswal reassured reporters that a new date for the exam will be announced soon.

The cancellation of the UGC-NET exam, which was conducted by the National Testing Agency, comes amidst a heated controversy surrounding the NEET medical entrance exam. Allegations of irregularities have sparked a debate and the issue has now been taken to the Supreme Court. In light of these events, it is evident that the Education Ministry is taking necessary measures to ensure fair and transparent exams for all students.
