Hello Ashutosh,

In what is being touted as a landmark move with regard to the conduct of entrance examinations in India, the Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given its approval for the creation of a National Testing Agency (NTA), bringing to life an idea first mooted in the 2017-18 Union Budget. As per a Government of India press release dated November 10, 2017, the NTA will be registered as a society and run as an autonomous and self-sustained premier testing organization to conduct entrance examinations for higher educational institutions. However, with around only two months remaining for the NEET 2018 applications to begin, the NTAs involvement in the conducting ofNEETis only expected to take place in 2019 at the earliest.

The introduction of the NTA may also lead to NEET and other exams being held twice a year. Further details about the NTA and its proposed structure can be readhere.

Hi Ashutosh Pandey

According to some news papers there will be a new body (NTS-National Testing Service) which in the process of formation for now which will be handed over the entire responsibility of conducting all common entrance exams like JEE, NEET, NET, CTET etc.

This process is still pending and requires approval, but according to the ongoing activities seems like CBSE will shift over the responsibility to NTS from next year. And if it happens, NTA is planning to conduct exam twice a year for giving ample opportunities to aspirants. 

So this year, most probably, CBSE gonna conduct NEET.

NTS will then become the largest test conducting body all over India.

Hope this answer Helps.

The Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday cleared a proposal for creation of a National Testing Agency (NTA), to conduct entrance tests which are at present being conducted by the CBSE. But the work is still in progress. So for the year 2018 it will be conducted by CBSE.

Hello  Ashutosh Pandey,

Hope your doing good!

 

As per a statement made by the Union HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar on November 10, 2017, the Union Cabinet has approved the creation of a National Testing Agency (NTA) which is intended to be the sole authority to conduct national-level entrance examinations to various educational institutions.

The idea is to reduce the burden on the CBSE and the AICTE as well as introduce more reliability and standardisation into the exam conducting process.

One of the exams which will be transferred to the NTA is NEET.

 

 

However, you must note that only the Cabinet approval has been received so far and it may still take some time for the body to start functioning. The admissions for NEET 2018 are expected to begin from January 2018 onwards. So with less than 1 month remaining, it is likely that NEET 2018 will be conducted by the CBSE itself and the NTA may take over from 2019 onwards.

 

Hope this helps. 

And hope this answers your question.

Thank you.
