Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has pointed Modi government over glitches in holding the (CUET)-UG, saying it was due to the incompetence and lack of preparedness
New Delhi: Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Wednesday hit out at the Modi government over glitches in holding the Central University Entrance Test (CUET) UG, saying it was due to the incompetence and lack of preparedness of the ruling dispensation. "The Common University Entrance Test had to be cancelled in 13 centres today affecting close to 8,700 aspirants. This has been happening repeatedly under the excuse of 'unavoidable technical glitches," he said on Twitter.
छात्रों का भविष्य बर्बाद करने के लिए सरकार ने कोई कसर बाकी नहीं रखी। 'नई शिक्षा नीति' को लेकर किए गए बड़े-बड़े दावे जुमले ही साबित हुए हैं।
