CTET July 2020 candidates continue to wait for communication by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on the availability of admit cards. Amid strong speculation that admit cards for Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) exams, to be held on July 5, 2020, would be released this week, candidates are waiting for official communication from the board. 

The anxiety among CTET candidates is also because of the uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Most of the exams have been cancelled or postponed in the country since the lockdown measures were announced in March and all educational institutions were closed. 

While the CBSE has not cancelled the CTET July 2002 exam and is likely to go ahead with it, the delay in releasing admit cards is causing some worry for nearly 30 lakh candidates. 

While the board has not officially communicated when it will release the admit cards, it is usually uploaded two weeks before the exam. The admit card or hall ticket for the CTET July 2020 exam is expected to be released by the CBSE any time this week on its official website.

CBSE has advised all candidates to check the official website ctet.nic.in regularly for update.
