Tamilnadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin has once again appealed to the Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to change the dates of the UGC -NET exams. In a letter, the Chief Minister stated that the State Government had declared a holiday during the Pongal season, which is celebrated from the 13th to the 16th of this month considering its cultural
importance to the people of the State.
Stalin said that it would be difficult for the candidates to attend the examination and asked him to reconsider the decision immediately. He also said that the Chartered Accountants Foundation exams have been rescheduled for the same reason.
