NTA Orders Re-Conduct of Three UGC-NET Papers

Barely three weeks after the exam-amendment law takes effect, the NTA announces it will re-conduct three UGC-NET June 2026 papers — English, Commerce and Sociology — after an internal committee finds multiple errors following student complaints, including 67 of 150 English questions repeated from the 2024 exam. The re-tests are scheduled for Sep 9 (English, Commerce) and Sep 10 (Sociology), with no extra fee charged to candidates; results for the other 84 subjects proceed as scheduled. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi calls for accountability, reviving scrutiny of the NTA's reliability.
