Mysore/Mysuru: The University of Mysore (UoM), Nodal Agency for the conduct of K-SET exam-2021 (Karnataka State Eligibility Test) for Assistant Professorship in Degree Colleges (Government/aided/unaided), has decided to conduct the exam on Apr.25.

In a communication issued on Thursday, K-SET Convenor Prof. H. Rajashekar said that all preparations have been made to conduct the exam on Apr.25. He pointed out that all Deputy Commissioners, City Corporation Commissioners and the Police Department have been requested to ensure security and safety measures at their respective Nodal Centres for smooth conduct of the test. As COVID-19 cases are on the surge, instructions have been given to all Nodal Officers for safe conduct of the test, he added.

The K-SET-2021 was earlier scheduled to take place on Apr.11. But UoM suddenly announced postponement of the exam on Apr.10, just a day before the exam, due to inevitable circumstances triggered by the spike in COVID-19 pandemic and KSRTC strike.
