DU stated that it activated the online portal for issuance of digital degree certificates at digicerti.du.ac.in. In order to collect documents online, students have to register themselves and give their details including their academic qualification, name of their college, etc.

The Delhi University submitted before the Delhi High Court that it has activated the online portal for issuance of digital degree certificates. A single-judge bench of Justice Pratibha M Singh appreciated the effort of the officials of Delhi High Court IT team, Digilocker and Delhi University for coming up with the template of the digital degree certificate in a timely manner. On August 7, the Bench in its order said, “The issuance of similar digital degree certificates duly verified by two officials of the Delhi University and digitally signed by the Authorised Officer of the varsity would in the court’s opinion, satisfy the purpose of the petitioners.”

Various petitions were filed by the doctors in the High Court, who had graduated from various medical colleges in Delhi in 2017 and 2018, seeking the issuance of degree certificates in order to pursue their post graduate medical education in the USA. The plea also said that the DU did not issue the document on the ground that the contract with the printer had expired.

The Delhi High Court directed the varsity to issue digital degree certificates to doctors who graduated from various medical colleges affiliated with the Delhi University in the year 2017 and 2018 by email, on or before August 13, 2020.

The hearing was conducted over a video call due to the ongoing pandemic situation. The meeting was attended by Professor Vinay Gupta (Dean, Examinations) and Dr Sanjeev Singh (Joint Director, DU Computer Centre). They also submitted the data of all the students who graduated up until November 2019 and stated that it is already available with the DU.

DU further stated that it activated the online portal for issuance of digital degree certificates at digicerti.du.ac.in. In order to collect documents online, students have to register themselves and give their details including their academic qualification, name of their college, etc.

“Upon the same being completed by the students, the digital degree certificates for the students shall be issued within a maximum period of one week, after completing the verification, etc,” they submitted before the High Court.

The University also assured that all such students who require their digital degree certificates due to any urgent deadlines, etc, are free to register on the portal and the varsity officials shall make sure that their digital degree certificates are issued within a period of one week from registration.

Hi.

Deciding between Kamla Nehru College (KNC) and Daulat Ram College (DRC) for Psychology depends on your preference for campus location, overall college atmosphere and specific subject performance. Both are top women-only colleges, so the choice comes down to personal fit.
