#NEET #JEE #CUET #examination Centre has extended the tenure of the Nandan Nilekani-led task force on examination reforms till January 2027, with the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) seeking consultations with chief ministers and chief secretaries before the panel finalises its recommendations, TOI learnt from govt sources. During consultations, some stakeholders and experts have also suggested a hybrid format for NEET-UG 2027, allowing time to expand infrastructure for a complete shift to computer-based testing (CBT) in 2028. A govt source said the PMO wants the task force, earlier expected to submit its report by October-end, to seek views from state leadership on challenges particular to different regions. The aim, the source said, is to better understand disparities in testing infrastructure, connectivity and administrative preparedness, and reflect these state-specific concerns in a more comprehensive examination reform roadmap. For that the committee is also to consult the chief secretaries for their views. Another proposal likely to feature in the task force's recommendations is a nationwide network of CBT centres developed by the Centre and state governments with private investment, sources said. Such a model could expand government oversight of testing facilities while mobilising private capital to build infrastructure, particularly in districts that lack secure, adequately equipped centres. The funding, ownership and operating arrangements would need to be worked out. Such centres could support common security standards, reliable connectivity and better access for candidates outside metros. A @timesofindia #exclusive 👇 timesofindia.indiatimes.com/…

#UPpolls #UttarPradesh #Elections2027 #Politics Come Feb-March 2027, UP will vote in the mother of all state elections. Its significance can’t be overstated, everyone from Lucknow to Nagpur to 7 Lok Kalyan Marg knows it. Since the last election, Lok Sabha 2024, what’s moved on the ground? To that question, another one. Which UP will vote? ... BJP will argue voters approach LS and assembly polls differently. SP will say its 2024 gains reflect the mood in UP. If BJP wins, Yogi will become UP’s first CM to score a hat-trick, raising his stock in the party ecosystem. But, a victory changes surprisingly little in the near-term. BJP will remain Modi’s party; Yogi won’t suddenly inherit the Centre. But a UP win would set BJP in pole position for another term in Delhi. Lose UP, or win with thin margins, and 2029’s arithmetic will be redrawn overnight... For Yogi, the single biggest differentiator between 2022 and 2024 was RSS-BJP equation. In LS polls, Sangh reportedly went into standby mode. BJP paid for it. It’s not that RSS can make BJP win every election. But it certainly dents the tally when it stays home. For 2027, BJP has Sangh’s full support. BJP’s biggest headache is double anti-incumbency – a third term at the Centre, a second in UP. As has been the party’s response to this, expect new candidates to blunt voter fatigue with the current dispensation. Proof: BJP has changed all 8 Rajya Sabha nominees from UP. @drindrajeetrai Read online @timesofindia 👇 timesofindia.indiatimes.com/…
