The first day of CUET-UG on Friday witnessed some students in Delhi alleging that they ended up missing their exams due to the last minute changes in their examination centers. The UGC, however, categorically said that no retest will be conducted for anyone other than the students who were supposed to take exams at two centres — one each in West Bengal’s New Jalpaiguri and Punjab’s Pathankot. The exam was cancelled at these two centres due to technical glitches.
