The National Testing Agency (NTA), set up in 2017 under the Ministry of Education, is an autonomous body that conducts major national entrance examinations such as JEE (Main), NEET (UG), CUET and UGC-NET. Its administrative head is the Director General.
In March 2026, senior official Abhishek Singh was appointed as the Director General of the NTA, at a time when the agency was focusing on strengthening the integrity, security and transparency of the examinations it conducts.
Sanjay Jaju, Nagaraju Maddirala and Chanchal Kumar are senior civil servants who were not given this charge; so the official appointed to head the NTA in March 2026 is Abhishek Singh.
Hence, Abhishek Singh.
