The Central Government has exempted undergraduate students in Meghalaya and Nagaland seeking admission to colleges affiliated with central universities in the two states from CUET, authorities said on May 29.
The North Eastern Hill University in Meghalaya and Nagaland University in Nagaland are both central universities. Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma praised Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan for exempting undergraduate students from Meghalaya seeking admission to colleges affiliated with North Eastern Hill University, a central university.
“Happy to inform our students that admissions to affiliated colleges to Central University’s in Meghalaya have been exempted from CUET for this academic year. I thank @dpradhanbjp ji for his continuous support and understanding,” the Meghalaya CM said in a post on X.
The exemption was granted in response to the state government's petition to the National Testing Agency, which had organized the CUET for students seeking UG admissions to both Meghalaya and Nagaland's Central Universities, they claimed.
“I am directed to inform that the University Grant Commission has already considered the request received from the state of Meghalaya and Nagaland through the NTA and allowed affiliated colleges to take admission as per prevailing practice by giving exemption from CUET for the academic year 2024-25,” a senior official of the Education Ministry said in a letter issued to Vice Chancellors of both the Universities.
“The UGC has considered the decision taken by the ministry and agreed to allow admissions in the affiliated colleges’¦ as per prevailing practice by giving exemption from CUET,” he said. The Central University Entrance Test (CUET) hit roadblocks in Meghalaya and Assam after it began on May 15.
Meghalaya Education Minister Rakkam A Sangma stated that the state government has taken the CUET examination seriously and has asked the NTA to either re-conduct the exam or exempt Meghalaya from it.
