CUET UG 2025 result delay sparks nationwide anger, demands grow for overhaul of NTA
As thousands of students continue to await the CUET UG 2025 results , frustration is boiling over into a larger outcry against the National Testing Agency (NTA) — with many questioning not just the delay, but the overall credibility and accountability of India's central exam body. The Common University Entrance Test for Undergraduates, launched as a transformative step to streamline admissions to over 250 central, state, and private universities, now stands at the centre of controversy due to the lack of a declared result date and no official update from the NTA, reported ToI. Mounting criticism over silence, mismanagement Students and educators have taken to social media to express growing distrust in the NTA, citing bureaucratic opacity, technical mismanagement, and lack of communication. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Health: Over-40s are snapping up the new indestructible military smartwatch Indestructible Smartwatch Undo On X, formerly Twitter, user @TejasvaShukla posted: 'Shut down NTA. This institution has failed lakhs of students. And it continues to function without accountability.' Live Events — TejasvaShukla (@TejasvaShukla) Similarly, Garvit Sethi, another user, criticised the agency for 'repeated failures' in multiple exams including CUET, NEET, and UGC-NET, pointing out issues ranging from faulty answer keys and last-minute exam rescheduling to glitches during test administration. He echoed growing sentiment that if the NTA 'can't function transparently and responsibly, it should not function at all.' — garvit_sethii (@garvit_sethii) Another student, Shipra S, wrote on X about the agency's helpline remaining unresponsive during critical times, a complaint many CUET aspirants have raised over the past week. — ShipraS9 (@ShipraS9) Admission calendars disrupted, universities in limbo The delay in results has also disrupted the academic timelines of several universities. With admissions, hostel allocations, and scholarship processes on hold, institutions are unable to begin counselling until the final scores are released. Administrative officials at several universities have expressed concern that if the delay stretches further, it could compress or derail the entire academic calendar for undergraduate admissions in 2025. As of Monday, the NTA has not issued any explanation or updated schedule for the release of the final answer key or CUET UG 2025 results. The lack of clarity has fuelled calls for urgent structural reforms, including proposals for independent oversight of national-level examination bodies. Some educators have also weighed in on the need to revisit the centralisation of entrance exams like CUET, which were meant to make admissions more equitable but now face criticism for becoming stress-inducing and logistically unreliable. Once announced, students will be able to access their results via the NTA's official website — but until then, the uncertainty continues.

Logical Reasoning saw the highest number of questions, while Current Affairs had a smaller footprint. However, questions from Static General Knowledge, often tied to recent events, featured prominently. On average, students encountered about 12–13 questions from the GK and Current Affairs category.
