By Mehboob Inamdar

Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: The students of undergraduate and postgraduate courses will get assessed answer book copies online within the jurisdiction of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University (Bamu) for re-evaluation under the grievance redressal mechanism.

It may be noted that there are more than 476 UG and PG colleges at Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Jalna, Beed and Dharashiv with lakhs of students. The students get an opportunity to apply for the re-evaluation of answer books under the redressal system if they fail or are unsatisfied with the result.

Currently, after the declaration of the result, the candidate can apply through the respective college within the given deadline to seek copies of answer books of selected subjects with paying fees.

The candidates will have to verify the answer book from his/her teacher and re-submit the answer books to the university through the respective institute. The Examination Department will call subject-expert to evaluate the answer books freshly. With the re-valuation, the university declares the candidate's result.

The students were mostly unaware of when their answer books were sent to the colleges. Because of the delay, many students do not get information on the arrival of copies of answer books.

There was a demand to supply answer books copies on time. The members of the different boards raised this matter with the administration.

The Examinations Department decided to provide copies of assessed answer books on email of students. Now, the students will have to provide copies of answer books while filling examination application form.

Talking newspaper, Pro-vice chancellor Dr Walmik Sarwade said that students from the October-November session would get copies of online answer books. He said that this would save time for the candidates. Meanwhile, the university has already adopted online screen evaluation of answer books for some courses.
