UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NEP 2020 describes Academic Bank of Credits as a key instrument for flexibility. Students can earn credits from different HEIs and store them digitally. Recognised institutions then accept these credits towards certificates, diplomas or degrees, enabling mobility and re entry.

Option A:
Refusing to recognise external credits would block flexible pathways and contradict the policy’s modular approach. Therefore this option is incorrect.

Option B:
This option correctly captures that ABC enables digital storage and cross institutional use of credits, aligning with NEP’s flexibility goals and is therefore correct.

Option C:
Transfer restricted to one department does not reflect the inter institutional mobility envisaged. NEP calls for broader recognition across HEIs, so this option is too narrow.

Option D:
Relying solely on informal negotiations would create inconsistency and potential bias. NEP aims for systematic, rule based credit transfer through a formal system, so this option is inaccurate.
