UPTET 2026 Candidates Protest Over OMR Rejection and Result NormalisationPreviousNext

Candidates who appeared for the Uttar Pradesh Teachers Eligibility Test (UPTET) 2026 are protesting in Prayagraj, demanding a review of rejected OMR sheets and the normalisation process used in result calculation. The Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission upheld its rules after a committee review, rejecting demands for revised results. Protesters argue that minor errors on OMR sheets should not lead to cancellations and question the fairness of normalisation. The protest continues as candidates seek transparency and reconsideration.
