But when the admit cards were released, they found to their extreme dismay that they have been allocated a distant location of Kanpur, as the exam center."
"As you know, CUET (PG)-2022 exams will start from September 1 and it is almostimpossible for students to travel from Kannur to Kanpur on such short notice. It is a matter of serious concern that this misinformation was given by the National Testing Agency which has resulted in the denial of the basic right of every student to pursue their career in an esteemed Central University," He further added.
