Release pending DU semester results, give extra chances to submit assignments: DUSU urges Delhi University Colleges

DUSU Also requested DU colleges not to add attendance in the marking of Assessment Based Evaluation (EVA).

DU Semester Exam Results: The Delhi University Students Union (DUTA) on June 5 urged the principals and teachers of 70 DU colleges to clear pending results. The Union also urged the colleges to give multiple chances to students to submit assignments for ABE exams. In an official statement, the Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU), said it presented its demands to the Delhi University Principals’ Association (DUPA) as well as the Delhi University Teachers' Association (DUTA). Among the other demands, the students union also requested colleges not to add attendance in the marking of Assessment Based Evaluation (EVA).

"The results of many subjects of pending semesters are yet to be declared. We request you to kindly direct teachers to clear the pending papers as soon as possible," it said in the statement. It added that students of intermediary years giving their assignment-based exams (ABE) should be given another chance to submit their assignments. It also requested the colleges to reconduct practical exams "without evaluation".

DUSU further said, "It has been seen that the learning process has been affected in the online mode, especially in practical subjects. So we suggest that the practicals be conducted again without evaluation, just for learning for those who wish to opt for it.”

Meanwhile, The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) recently submitted a memorandum to 56 principals of Delhi University colleges requesting them to extend the deadline of assignment submission among other demands. According to an official statement released by the RSS-affiliated ABVP, 56 college units of the student outfit submitted a memorandum highlighting various issues and requested the authorities to redress them at the earliest. In the memorandum, the college units demanded an “extension in deadline of assignment-based evaluation of second-year students who have not been able to submit their work in the given time due to unfavourable conditions amidst the pandemic.”
