NTA approved holding JEE Mains and NEET exams bi-annually

National Testing Agency (NTA) has approved to hold the NEET and JEE Mains exam twice a year as this will give candidates adequate opportunity to fight the competition. The formation of NTA was approved by the Union Cabinet on November 10, 2017, which is 10 months after the proposal. On February 1, 2018, Arun Jaitely proposed that NTA will act as an autonomous and self-sustained organization which will be in charge of conducting the exams for the higher education institutions. After the approval, NTA was granted INR 25 crore to start its operations and from thereon, the organization will be self-sustained. 'The NTA would initially conduct those entrance examinations which are currently being conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). The examinations will be conducted in online mode twice a year,' said Minister of State (HRD), Dr. Satya Pal Singh. He added ‘in order to serve the requirements of the rural students, NTA would locate the centres at sub-district/district level and as far as possible would provide hands-on training to the students’. Almost 40 lakh students will be benefited by the NTA who appear for various competitive exams every year.

DU admissions 2018 | Some DU colleges hike fee in the name of maintenance and hostel costs

As Delhi University has started the admission process for 2018, some colleges have increased their annual fees citing maintenance (general and hostel) as the reason. Deen Dyal Upadhyaya College has increased its fees by INR 4000. Humanities fee has gone up from INR 11,460 to 15,610. “There is a marginal increase of Rs 4,000, as the annual maintenance fee of the new campus comes up to Rs 3-Rs 4 crore. But for the fee we are taking, we are also giving a free scholarship of Rs 10,000 to needy students,” said SK Garg, DDU principal. Indraprastha College has also hiked its fees as all the 92 rooms in the hostel have been made air-conditioned, told principal Babli Moitra Saraf. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee College has also raised its fee by INR 4000. Dyal Singh college had increased its fee last year. The staff council has asked the college to roll back its decision to increase the fee as it was done without the approval from the governing body’s nod. Principal IS Bakshi said the matter is on the governing bodyʼs agenda: “The rule is, once the fee hike was decided by the chairman, it has to be approved by the governing body. I have placed it on the agenda. If rethinking needs to be done, we will decide then.”

NIOS students facing difficulties with their exam results

NIOS students, who had appeared for the exams of the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) are facing lots of difficulties in getting their mark sheets corrected. The results of the NIOS were announced on Saturdays. Some students are alleging that they have been marked absent in their mark sheets for the exams they have written and other students have scored single digit marks in certain subjects, which they claim to be impossibly low. Saket Prasad was marked absent in the Physics exam and has scored only six marks in the Chemistry exam. He said “I took the exam at the Distance Learning Institute in Model Colony and everybody at the examination hall has either been marked absent in physics, or has received low marks in chemistry. I was supposed to send my results tomorrow (Tuesday) to the JEE Advanced website but I have now lost out on that… I tried to contact officials at the JEE through their helpline, they said they could not make any exceptions in my case. I submitted a letter today (Monday) at the NIOS office but they told me it might take more than a month to respond…”. Nilesh Hiremath, the father of Ninad Hiremath, another student, said that he is a bright student, who scored 85 percent marks in class X. “He is a bright student who scored above 85 percent in Class X, he could not have scored single-digit marks. I went to the exam center and verified that his signature was on the attendance sheet for the physics exam… why was he marked absent? I went to the NIOS regional center and met many parents who had similar complaints. The regional center authorities told us that our complaints have been sent to the higher authorities,” he said. For the students, it is a race against time as they can lose a year or admissions to the college of their choice. Sweta Yadav, who has scored six marks in chemistry, said, “I have been told that even if I apply for a revaluation, the results will mostly be out either in August or September. So, whatever I do, I will lose a year. I have heard that some of the students from Commerce and Arts streams have been marked absent in two subjects.”
