Mahesh Kakade, SPPU examination and evaluation department head, said, “Currently, the exams of three streams are being conducted and from July 5, exams of post-graduate courses, too, will start. We are seeing a good trend this time which is that maximum number of students are using the entire time given for the examination, including the extra 15 minutes. This is unusual as most of the times, students complete their papers early.”
