Supreme Court advocate Ujjawal Gaur urged the UGC and NTA to expedite the release of delayed UGC NET results, citing significant distress for students. He warned of potential legal action due to violations of constitutional rights, emphasizing the emotional and financial burden faced by candidates while awaiting results following exam rescheduling amidst alleged paper leaks.
The Supreme Court Today (August 12th) declined to intervene in the government’s decision to cancel the UGC NET 2024 exam, which was initially held on June 18. The Court noted that the exam is rescheduled for August 21, and any interference at this point could result in “utter chaos.” The case was heard by a bench comprising Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra.
