There was some controversy surrounding this year’s exam, including allegations of a paper leak. Based on reports, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) was appointed to investigate the matter, which concluded that no paper leak had occurred. However, due to these problems, a re-examination was initially planned, but was later postponed. Despite these challenges, the exam was completed successfully and the publication of the final answer key marks the completion of the assessment process.

Additionally, candidates who qualify for UGC NET 2024 can apply for teaching and research positions in a variety of disciplines ranging from arts and humanities to science and technology, making it a crucial exam for those who pursue a career in academia.
