(Getty Images) NEW DELHI: Many of the students who had appeared for Delhi University's online Open Book Examination (OBE) were in for a shock when DU started declaring the results from Monday night - they have been marked absent or zero-upload in papers that they had attempted and submitted. Colleges have been receiving emails with similar complaints since Monday night.

"I had sent my answer sheet through email as I could not upload it on the portal. I had also received a confirmation email from the examination department," he said from Rajasthan, adding that he had already sent five-six mails on all IDs of the college and the department. "But I am worried as there has been no confirmation email." A fast correction is necessary as he has appeared for the postgraduate entrance at Jawaharlal Nehru University, he added.
Both issues are being faced mostly by students of economics, mathematics, BSc Programme, geography and philosophy.
"I have been marked zero for my environmental economics paper though I had received a submission acknowledgement for it," said an economics student of a North Campus college. Ashutosh Kumar, the examination nodal officer at College of Vocational Studies, said, "We have received emails from students of all departments. I have around 40-50 such emails. While 20% of them say their results are 'not found', 80 % have been marked absent in different papers."
