UGC NET 2019 Paper 1 Question Paper (5-Dec-2019) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

NUEPA

The premier organisation established in India for capacity building and research in the planning and management of education, for India and the wider South Asian region, is NUEPA, the National University of Educational Planning and Administration, located in New Delhi. Originally set up as the National Institute of Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA), it was upgraded and deemed a university, and it undertakes research, training and consultancy in educational planning and administration. It has since been renamed the National Institute of Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA), but the body referred to here is the same institution.

AIU (Association of Indian Universities) is wrong because it is a body that coordinates universities and handles equivalence of degrees, not a specialised research organisation for educational planning and management. SAARC University is wrong because it is a regional international university offering postgraduate programmes, not a dedicated institution for planning and management of education. Nalanda University is wrong because it is a revived international centre of learning focused on liberal and postgraduate studies, unrelated to educational planning and administration.

Correct answer: NUEPA
