Students alleged that they noticed discrepancies between their expected performance, based on their knowledge and preparation, and the actual grades. Seeking revaluation of their answer sheets, a delegation of MA (English) students met the Vice-Chancellor and requested him to review the results and the marking scheme of the examinations.
“There appears to be a rigid pattern in the marking scheme. This rigid pattern in grading has raised suspicions among the student body regarding the fairness and impartiality of the evaluation process,” read a letter written by the aggrieved students to the Controller of Examination.
Meanwhile, HPU Controller of Examination Shyam Lal Kaushal said a committee had been constituted to look into allegations of the students.
