The-Brief Last Week Online Open Book Exams, DU circular upheld, Exam Postponed till August

The-Brief Last Week

Abhishek And Ors Vs. University Of Delhi, (2020) 06 DEL CK 0139,  (W.P.(C) 3268/2020) (23.06.2020) 
 

Challenge in this Writ Petition was made by students of the Delhi University to the circular dated 14.05.2020.

By way of the circular dated 14.05.2020, the University declared that the examination of the final year students shall be held through remote open book exams starting from 01.07.2020;

Pleas raised by the petitioners:

They belong the economically weaker sections and may not have adequate infrastructure. The circular violates Right to Equality as exams when conducted in an Examination Hall ensures the same environment and facilities for all the candidates. when exams are held from homes, different students would have different atmosphere background noise, sitting space, dedicated room etc. no possibility of keeping a check on cheating by the students.

Plea of the University:

Students are not bound to appear in the remote open book examination and they can opt to appear in the conventional examination which will be tentatively held in September, 2020.

While upholding the notification, the Hon’ble High Court permitted the students who opt not to appear in the Open Book Exam (“OPE”) to appear in the post graduate entrance test of the university.

It is a welcome direction for the students who may face difficulty in appearing for the OPE or choose to appear when exams are held in the conventional manner.

We must also appreciate the step by the University for finding ways to cope with the current unprecedented situation.

The circular was previously challenged by the National Federation of the Blind vs. Union Of India & Ors, (2018) 11 DEL CK 0074 before a Division Bench of the Delhi High Court wherein it was upheld by the Hon’ble Court.



But Programme main thoda change hai as the Delhi University has postponed the exams now till August!
