Nagpur University PGDCA Students Demand For postpone 2012 Summer Exam
Two days after students of Nagpur University embarked on exam journey, troubles returned to haunt its officials. On Wednesday, nearly 50 students stormed NU's administrative premises near Maharajbagh with a demand to postpone their exam. The students are pursuing one-year post-graduate diploma in computer science and application (PGDCS & A) in various colleges.
They gathered near vice-chancellor Vilas Sapkal's chamber and raised slogans. According to them, the timetable was released just 10 days before the exam, leaving them in a complete shock. They demanded more than one day's gap between two papers. They claimed that the timetable was not uploaded on the NU's website. TOI had many times highlighted the problem faced by lakhs of NU due to failure of officials to update the website. It was only after TOI reports that some changes were made.
Students claimed that in the age of information technology (IT), NU seems to be moving in the dark age which is evident from its website. They alleged that NU has been charging Rs 50 per students towards e-suvidha since last many years, but no such facilities are offered. There are no details of where the collected money has gone, they claimed. The atmosphere turned tense for sometime as students kept raising various issues.
Controller of Examination (CoE) Siddharth Kane however refused to accept any of the demands of students and denied allegations. He told them that timetable was dispatched to the respective colleges about a month back. He said it was the fault of colleges if they failed to provide timetable to students. He said that he can't change the exam schedule now as it would lead to system collapse and pose problems to students of other faculties.
