GTU is preparing to conduct final examinations from 2 July.
Students of various courses of GTU wrote a letter to UGC demanding that guidelines be issued to GTU not to take examinations keeping in mind the coronavirus infection. The students demanded that the GTU exams, especially the finals, be canceled as GTU was neither following the rules of social distancing nor sanitization was being done here.
In the letter written to the UGC by the students, it has been said that Gujarat ranks fourth in the country in corona cases. Actis is at number 6 in cases and third in deaths. So it can be very difficult to conduct examinations here. The students also played demanding exams, the students should be marked further based on their merit. This may prevent many students from corona infection.
On this matter, it has been said by the university that if they get such Nisha instructions from the UGC, then they will execute merit-based progress instead of the necessary examinations. Even final year students will be passed on this basis.
