Reason for the two-sessional examinations
In general, UGC NET is conducted twice in a year. However, last year due to the coronavirus epidemic, the conduct of this examination was canceled in December 2021.
Subsequently, the UGC and NTA decided to merge the pending examination of December 2021 with the examination of the June 2022 session and conduct them together.
