PUNE: The Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) has received 13,500 complaints about the final-year semester examination conducted in the online and offline modes.
Students complained about options, phrasing of questions, connection issues to submission of papers online. A three-member panel has been set up by the university to consider these complaints and a decision will be delivered after a week.
A report on all the complaints will be submitted to the state government after which a decision will be taken, SPPU officials said.
As many as 2.5 lakh students from Pune, Nashik and Ahmednagar are taking the final semester examination which is still underway for various subjects.
Since the first day, the students and the SPPU administration have run into numerous issues concerning the exam. The SPPU had uploaded a Google Form on its website for students to register their complaints.
The complaints have been put into six categories. Of those, the problems faced during login, wrong question papers, questions and options not visible, the paper not being submitted, and others were received. A maximum of 7,500 complaints were for papers not being submitted.
The SPPU is trying to rearrange the exam for students whose complaints were genuine. The head of the university’s exam department, Mahesh Kakade, said, “We are trying to solve each and every complaint and ensuring that no student is left behind for technical reasons. We have received the complaints through Google Forms and we are looking into each one. We will soon resolve them.”
