For conducting NTA exam Union education ministry is considering this approach so as to involve all state and district administrations during the entrance exams. All the exams conducted by NTA will be in line with UPSC model.

The same approach will be implemented for conducting various entrance exams, which include CUET-UG, CUET-PG, JEE-MAINS, and NEET-UG.
