Uttar Pradesh Teacher Eligibility Test (UPTET) 2021, which was scheduled to be held on November 28, has been cancelled by the state government followed by an alleged paper leak. According to reports, the question paper was leaked on the WhatsApp group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional Director General, Law and order, Prashant Kumar has informed that the state government will conduct the test within a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UP TET 2021 test gets cancelled<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

UP TET 2021 paper got cancelled a few hours before the commencement of the exam. This year, around 20 lakhs candidates had registered for the test which was to be conducted across seventy-five districts of Uttar Pradesh at various exam centres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Followed by the paper leak, APN got in touch with UP TET 2021 candidates to report their take on the paper leak and the state’s decision to cancel the test. Candidates expressed their anger and disappointment with the state and argued that important government examinations deserve high-level security and the system failed to provide it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Uttar Pradesh government will take at least 400 years to be as developed as Kerala government in terms of education. The state authorities are incompetent to conduct even one important test. They can carry out NTA, UGC exams, civil services exams peacefully but not the state exams,” said Mohd Asif Ali (30), a candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asif further adds, “Why does the system appoint corrupt officials to conduct these exams? Therefore, the officials should be given morality training.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohd Zaki Khan (24), another candidate, said he travelled all the way from Budaun to Aligarh to write the UP TET 2021 test. He further informed that the paper got leaked late night on November 28, however, candidates were asked to reach the exam centre. Zaki and other candidates already wrote the test for an hour but were asked to leave midway after it got cancelled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The officials allowed us to enter the centre and distributed the question paper to all the candidates. I was appearing for 47-48 question numbers when they informed about the paper cancellation and asked everyone to leave. I am unemployed and request the government to conduct these examinations timely to avoid a colossal competition in a year,” said Mohd Shahnawaz (28), a visually impaired candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
