The Delhi High Court has directed the Delhi University to release the results of all the postgraduate programmes by October 31. The Court has also asked the Delhi University to upload the mark sheets on its website, to avoid students physically visiting the campus to collect them. The high court has also fixed various deadlines for declaration of results of undergraduate courses, between October 20 to 31 with a buffer of a maximum of three days from the date fixed.
For BA (prog) courses, the results will be declared on November 6, it said. A bench of Justice Hima Kohli and Subramonium Prasad also directed the varsity to ensure that results and mark sheets are uploaded on its website and the students are not required to go to the college to physically collect it.
The bench has also directed the varsity to ensure that the mark sheets downloaded by the student from the website should not carry any footnote that it is subject to physical verification. Marksheets downloaded from the website shall be valid for all purposes, it said.
The high court disposed of two pleas by law student Prateek Sharma and the National Federation of Blind seeking to set up effective mechanisms for visually impaired and specially-abled students so that educational instructions can be transmitted to them properly and teaching material is provided to them through online mode of teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, the question of law is left open, the bench said. The high court had earlier asked the Delhi University and its examiners to expedite the evaluation process of online open-book examination (OBE) and declare the students' results preferably by the first week of October.
