India, May 30 -- The government faced fresh political heat on Saturday after the Common University Entrance Test-Undergraduate (CUET-UG) 2026 across several centers in India was delayed. The National Testing Agency (NTA) later blamed a "technical glitch" and the test was held with some delay.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and former Delhi CM Atishi launched a scathing attack on Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan, seeing the CUET delay as yet another incident of mismanagement of national-level examinations. "First NEET, then CBSE, now CUET," she said, pointing towards the NEET-UG paper leak, and the controversies around the Class 12 marking system of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).
