South Gujarat University (VNSGU) students can check copy of their answer-book
by paying fees of Rs 500 and get photo-copy paying Rs 2 per page charge under
Right to Information Act (RTI). The decision was taken in a syndicate meeting
held at VNSGU on Monday. Earlier in 2014, VNSGU announced to give copy of
answer-book for Rs 1,000 fees but the decision was not implemented.
Akhil
Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) had carried out demonstration and demanded
to implement the decision. The decision was not implemented despite various
representations due to internal politics within VNSGU circles. Sources in VNSGU
informed that a group of faculties and administrative officials were against
the implementation.
For the copy
of answer-book a student is supposed to apply in prescribed format with fees.
For each answer-book Rs 500 will be charged as administrative expenses while Rs
2 per page is charged for photo-copy expenses, VNSGU officials informed.
"The
decision was taken in past to implement it in exam of 2015. Since the syndicate
approved the decision now the copy of answer-book will be given immediately. An
approval was awaited from syndicate," said Dakshesh Thakar,
vice-chancellor of VNSGU. Students can get benefit of the new arrangement from
Tuesday.
