CUET (UG) 2024 to be Postponed due to LS Elections? Get Details Here

As the Election Commission of India has announced the date and schedule for the Lok Sabha Elections 2024, there is growing speculation about the postponement of entrance and competitive exams such as CUET UG, NEET UG, and ICAI CA.

According to the official exam schedule of the National Testing Agency (NTA) the CUET (UG) 2024 will be conducted from 15 to 31 May 2024, with results announced within three weeks of the test.

Are CUET & Lok Sabha Election Dates Overlapping?

The tentative schedule for CUET UG 2024 coincides with the Lok Sabha election dates. However, even after the Election Commission of India (ECI) announced that the 2024 Lok Sabha elections will be held between April 19 and June 1, with results announced on June 4 the proposed schedule for the CUET (UG) 2024 is likely to remain the same. 

Earlier, prior to the announcement of election dates, Jagadesh Kumar, Chairman of the University Grants Commission (UGC), stated that CUET UG exam dates would be changed based on the Lok Sabha election schedule. Following the announcement of the LS Election dates, Kumar announced that the Common University Entrance Test (CUET)-UG will be held between 15 and 31 May, as previously announced, with no changes due to the Lok Sabha election schedule. A final decision regarding the CUET UG 2024 date sheet will be taken by the authorities after the registration window closes.
