The National Testing Agency (NTA) has scheduled a retest for over 1,000 candidates of CUET UG on July 19. On July 7, the NTA had released the provisional answer key for the Common University Entrance Test (CUET)-UG 2024 and announced that it would conduct a retest for candidates between July 15 and 19 if any grievances raised by students about the conduct of the exam were found to be valid.
Although the agency notified the retest schedule on Sunday, it has remained silent on the declaration of the results, which have already been delayed by over two weeks. The final answer key has also not yet been released.
This delay in CUET-UG results comes amid ongoing controversy over alleged irregularities in competitive exams, including NEET and NET.
The distribution of question papers in languages not opted for by the candidates is one reason for the retest, and the 1,000-odd candidates are spread across six states. Some of the grievances include time loss due to the distribution of the wrong question paper, as reported by a source cited by the news agency PTI.
"Initially it was decided that the results would be announced for the rest of the candidates before the retest and subsequently for the rest. However, we are now yet to take a final call on the same,” a source said.
Of the 1,000 CUET-UG aspirants for whom the NTA is conducting a retest, 250 candidates are from Oasis Public School in Hazaribagh, which is also under scrutiny for the alleged leak of the NEET-UG question paper.

"Based on these grievances, a re-examination will be conducted for those affected candidates on July 19, 2024, in the Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode," the notification said.
The CUET entrance test was held May 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, 24 and 29, 2024 in a hybrid format (computer-based test and pen and paper test). Over 13.4 lakh candidates registered for the common entrance test for admission to undergraduate courses in 261 central, state, deemed and private universities this year.
