👉As part of my #ListenToStudents campaign, I spoke to Angkita Kiling. A resident of ASSAM & a 3rd year DU student

👉Her story is a lesson to UGC & HRD min on why ONLINE EXAMS can't be done with current infra status not just in DU but in ALL universities

👉Angkita tells me, "OBE is discriminatory. Assam is drowning. Many have lost homes or suffered damage due to natural calamities like floods & earthquake in NORTH-EAST. Mizoram has been rocked by back-to-back quakes"

👉Why are concerns of the North-East never factored in?

Isn't it a mockery of India's premium university DU & the teachers that they can promote students on the basis of 1 and also 3 semester results but require to take #OpenBookExam for those who have given exam already for 5 semesters? MHRD must intervene.

A blind student who stays with other blind students in a Seva Kutir has her set of problems. In the message she wrote that she got it typed by someone because no one was actually around to type it for her. How will the university provide a typist for such students?

One of the students complaint that while participating in a webinar meeting whose agenda was "listening to the grievances of the students", she couldn't even voice her problems because of the disturbance in the connection. She stays in Delhi though, and not in North East.

The University of Delhi has declared online examinations for final year students. The exam will be for 3 hours, with an hour each to download the question paper, and upload the answer sheet and submit. I have some very basic questions to ask.
Apart from the fact that the university is still banking upon a system of examinations during a freaking pandemic, the very first question one needs to ask: What all does a person need to successfully complete an online examination from their homes?
My limited knowledge tells me that:
a) A laptop at maximum and a working smartphone at minimum
b) A good, stable, internet connection
c) READING MATERIAL TO PREPARE FOR THE EXAM (should be the first criteria for an exam)
