SIO to march to UGC Demanding NET Results of Dec 2010
New Delhi (26.05.2011): The Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO) will march to the University Grants Commission (UGC) office located at the Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, New Delhi on Friday, 27 May 2011 at 11.00 am demanding immediate declaration of the UGC National Eligibility Test (NET) results.

The UGC NET results which were scheduled to be declared in the month of April are yet to be out. After efforts to be intimated about the date of declaration of results, which proved an effort in vain, SIO decided to march to the UGC Office. SIO demands the declaration of the UGC NET December 2010 results at the earliest.
The UGC NET is the basic eligibility criteria to be a Assistant Professor at the College or University level. The Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) is also awarded based on the UGC NET. The delay in declaration of results keeps the future of the deserving and talented in the dark for the forthcoming academic year as throughout the country recruitments to various colleges and universities is currently under process.
