Candidates are feeling the heat as the wait for the UGC NET 2024 results stretches on, with the National Testing Agency (NTA) still silent on when they will be released. The June cycle of the exam has been mired in delays, prompting a wave of frustration that’s spilling over onto social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter), where students are sharing their concerns and calling for answers.
The saga began on June 18 when the initial exam was cancelled due to a significant question paper leak—a fact confirmed by Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Following that upheaval, the NTA rescheduled the exam, conducting the re-examination from August 21 to September 5, 2024. Although the NTA released the answer key in phases and allowed candidates to raise objections, the absence of any results has left many students feeling anxious and uncertain about their futures.
As the days turn into weeks, candidates are voicing their frustrations online. Ramesh Sahu, a candidate, tweeted, “Why no news about results until now? Kindly give us info; we are in deep pain and agony. #NTADeclareJune2024Result.” This sentiment resonates deeply with many others who are desperate for updates. Another user expressed their feelings of injustice, saying, “It’s almost 40 days since we sat for the UGC NET re-exam, but we have no clue when results will be released. It's not fair to students, especially after the first exam was cancelled without proper investigation.”
The mounting impatience is prompting calls for accountability from both the NTA and the Ministry of Education. Students are demanding timely updates, with comments like “UGC/NTA behaving like an irresponsible body” highlighting the urgent need for communication regarding the results. The silence only adds to the anxiety, leaving many wondering about the impact on their academic and professional paths.
For those anxiously awaiting their results, the process for checking them is straightforward once they are finally released. Candidates can visit the official NTA website, ugcnet.nta.ac.in, where they will need to enter their application number, date of birth, and security code. While this process may be simple, it does little to ease the growing apprehension among students as they wait for the crucial announcement that will shape their futures.
