Mr. Stalin who is the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu in his tweet called the Common University Entrance Test as “regressive” because not all the students come from the central board syllabus. He feels that state universities should have the liberty in the admission process rather than making CUET Score as the main criteria for admission. Considering the fact that CUET 2022 will be based on NCERT syllabi, it brings a lot of pressure on the candidates who have studied in the varied state boards. Mr. Stalin request the Prime Minister of India to withdraw the decision to make CUET mandatory for the admissions of central universities along with state, deemed, and private universities.
