Times of India: Chandigarh: Monday, January 08, 2018.
Thousands of
students enrolled in Panjab University who applied for rechecking of their
papers are going to get relief from the long pendency as the authorities are
coming up with a student charter for the examination. A fresh draft has been
chalked out by the examination branch to speed up the system of revaluation,
which will be tabled in the coming syndicate meeting for the final nod.
In the
proposal, the university examination branch is planning to ask students to
apply under one option out of three including RTI, revaluation and rechecking.
The students can opt for one option initially and if he or she applies for RTI
option, the other two options will not be available till he or she gets the
copy of the examination sheet.
For
rechecking of the examination sheet, the university has sought four-week's time
and has declared that it would need eight weeks before announcing results for
re-evaluation. If a students is dissatisfied despite filing an RTI, he or she
he can apply for re-evaluation or rechecking. Controller of examination at
Panjab University Parvinder Singh said every year thousands of students apply
for revaluation and it takes long before they get to know about the results of
their papers post revaluation.
Currenlt
there are three ways through which students can re-check their examination
result. Students can apply through RTI, get the exam sheets rechecked from
examination branch or go for revaluation in which the branch calculates the
marks given to candidate in a particular examination simultaneously. Officials
said there are over 60,000 students, who appeared under exams of various
courses, out of which thousands applied for all three options which is lengthy
and time consuming exercise.
