Yes, you are eligible. But make sure you should have minimum 55% aggregate marks (for General category) or 50% aggregate marks (for OBC/SC/ST/PwD category). In UGC NET exam you can appear only on the basis of your post graduation courses. So, you can apply in History for UGC NET Exam.
If you want to apply for JRF than your age must not more than 30 years. For assistant professor there is no upper age limit.

Yes, you are eligible. When you have completed your M.A. Through a UGC-approved university then you are eligible to appear for the UGC NET exam. If the university is not recognised by UGC and AICTE then that is a fraud university. Do not enter the college.
