The candidates blame the UGC for
coming out with a last minute specification that an aggregate of 65 per cent in
three papers was necessary for qualification for general category candidates.
The qualifying minimum was fixed at 60 and 55 per cent for OBC and
SC/ST/visually challenged/physically challenged categories.
While the NET notification stated that
the scores of only those candidates who score the minimum specified marks would
be considered for the preparation of result, the UGC’s new criteria for
qualification required candidates in general, OBC, and SC/ST/VC/PC categories
to post minimum scores (out of 350 — 100 marks each for first and second paper,
and 150 marks for third paper) of 227.5, 210, and 192.5 respectively.
So far, corresponding scores of 155,
138 and 130 were accepted as passing minimum for the three categories of
candidates. The NET notification stated: “Only such candidates who obtain the
minimum required marks in each paper separately, as mentioned above, will be
considered for final preparation of result. However, the final qualifying
criteria for Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) and Eligibility for Lectureship
shall be decided by UGC before declaration of result.”
