CUET UG 2022: What Happened Earlier?
Earlier this month, the Phase 2 of CUET UG 2022 exams had begun on August 4, 2022, which was drastically hampered due to technical glitches and administrative reasons at umpteen exam centers of the country. Owing to the same, exams for thousands of aspirants have been rescheduled, thereby delaying the conclusion of the exam, which was originally set to wrap up on August 20.
Due to the delayed schedule, the exams were to be conducted in three phases, concluding on August 28. However, the latest update from UGC's side now suggests that the exam will end on August 30 now.
