Chandigarh, June 6

In view of the prevailing pandemic situation, Panjab University has decided to hold the semester examinations online.

The exams will start from June 28, informed sources.

A panel formed to conduct examinations has unanimously decided to hold the exams online and have submitted their report to the Vice-Chancellor for final approval.

“Considering the pandemic, we have unanimously decided to conduct the examinations online. The suggestions have been submitted for the final approval of the Vice Chancellor,” said a panel member.

Asked about reports on introducing a software to stop students from cheating in the upcoming examinations, sources said: “Nothing has been finalised yet.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
