DU Exams 2022: 115 unfair means cases recorded in ongoing semester examinations until June 7
DU Exams 2022: Delhi University has said that until June 7 it has received as many as 115 cases of students using unfair means during the ongoing semester examination. Delhi University began the semester examinations in the offline mode for the second and third-year undergraduate students in May. The University is conducting the exam in offline mode after two years due to COVID-19.
The DU official said that the number of such cases is far less this year as compared to the physical mode examination in 2019. "The unfair means (UFM) refers to cheating where a student is caught copying from or referring to any material other than the question paper or answer book," Dean of Examination DS Rawat, said. "So far (till Tuesday) we have registered 115 Unfair Means cases. These cases are not that many. They are far less as compared to physical mode examination in 2019," said Rawat, adding that the UFM committee will take action against these students once the exam is over.
The exam session is scheduled to end on June 18. "Following the exams, letters will be sent to the students involved in these cases, seeking clarification. They will be given a chance to explain themselves. The committee will also begin a personal hearing," he said. The committee will then decide on the punishment based on the rules and gravity of the offence. "In extreme cases, if the crime by the student is grave, the student will be asked to give the exams for all subjects of the semester again," Rawat added.
