Panjab University Plans to Conduct Exams at Students’ Convenience

The Authorities of the Panjab University have been working on a plan to execute exams for final year students in the view of the current situation. Since the HRD Ministry recently gave approval for conducting all final exams by the end of September, there have been many obstacles in conducting the exams.

Not only has there been an increase in the Covid-19 cases in Punjab, but also the fact that many students may have gone home to other states and travelling would not be possible for them.

Last month, PU had sought the details of students in various universities to set up examination centers in Punjab. However, during this research, no student was found to be living in another state. Even so, the HRD Ministry has stated that students who are unable to take exams by September, they will get another chance later on. PU officials are worried that if all students opt to take exams at a later date, the situation could be problematic.

Officials of the PU recently stated that they have gone through the UGC guidelines and are working on a plan to implement the exams while keeping the students’ interests in mind. They also stated that they have prepared two plans and the process of assembling everything for the exams will be completed by the end of the month.

Last month, PU announced that students may expect semester examinations in July, with a maximum strength of 150 candidates in each center. They had several guidelines set such as wearing masks, sanitization of each exam room, social distancing, thermal screening of students prior to entrance, and not allowing students and staff from red zones.

The students on the other hand are of the opinion that the ministry must take the decision back and avoid any situation which involves having several individuals gathering in a place.
