UG Merit List Delayed, Uncertainty Looms Over WBJEE Results Amid OBC Quota Row

The release of the first undergraduate (UG) merit list for admissions through West Bengal's centralized portal, initially scheduled for 07 August 2025 (Thursday), has been deferred. The announcement of the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination (WBJEE) results, also expected on the same day, remains uncertain.

Both delays come in the wake of legal uncertainties surrounding the implementation of OBC reservations, casting a shadow over the admission and result declaration timelines. Authorities have yet to confirm when the pending lists and results will be made public.
