Question

Can a candidate qualified in UGC-NET be appointed on a teaching position in an agricultural university? Similarly, a candidate who has cleared the Joint CSIR-UGC Test or the ICARNET is eligible for teaching in a traditional university, like say, University of Delhi?

Sneha Darware · Answer

National Eligibility Test (NET) conducted by the three bodies, viz. UGC, CSIR and ICAR are mutually recognized. Nevertheless, suitability of a candidate for
any teaching position lies in the jurisdiction of the appointing authority.
