CUET PG 2025: CCTV, jammers to be in place; NTA warns against ‘cheating’ ahead of exam

NEW DELHI: The National Testing Agency (NTA) informed CUET PG candidates that verification will be done through the Aadhaar authentication process. Verification will be carried out by other means for those who do not bring the Aadhaar card and will be recorded in the exception form, the NTA said.

The Common University Entrance Test for postgraduate (CUET PG 2025) exam will be conducted from March 13 to April 1. A day before the exam, the NTA has issued an advisory for candidates appearing in the CUET PG exam to be held for 157 subjects in three shifts.

Candidates will have to complete biometrics verification first. It will be done by taking the thumb impression of the candidate multiple times. “For any candidate, whose thumb impressions will not match, then Biometrics will be carried out through the iris,” it said.
