Times of India: Meerut: Monday,
August 01, 2016.
Following
instructions from the chief minister office, Meerut divisional commissioner has
asked the district magistrate to intervene into the matter of one Ashok Kumar,
a law student of Chaudhary Charan Singh University who had complained to the
prime minister office (PMO) that his answer sheets were not evaluated properly.
Kumar had sought the varsity to show his answer sheets under the RTI Act after
he was failed in the first semester.
In his letter
to the PMO, Ashok stated that he had taken LLB first semester exams in December
2014. "I was disappointed on seeing my results that showed 'failed' though
I had written the exam well. Disappointed with the results I filed an RIT
application seeking information related to evaluation of the papers. On
September 26, 2015, I was shown my answer sheets. I found that several answers
remained unchecked and I was awarded less marks than I deserved. I approached
the authorities but nothing came out in my favour."
Ashok pleaded
in his letter to PMO to instruct CCSU authorities to conduct re-evaluation of
his answer sheets.
Ashok told
TOI, "Despite sending several applications to the varsity, my request is
yet to be answered. In second semester too I have cleared all papers but have
doubts that my answer sheets were not evaluated properly. So, I have filed an
RTI application afresh, but the varsity have not shown me the answer sheets of
the second semester so far."
Spokesperson
of the varsity, Prashant Kumar, said, "Ashok's answer sheets have been
re-evaluated and his marks have been revised. He will get the revised marksheet
for the first semester soon. Regarding the question of replying the RTI
application filed for second semester, things are under process and he will get
the reply soon."
