KARNAL: Haryana government’s notificati­on regarding final year exams in higher and technical education institutio­ns is out, but Kurukshetr­a University is yet to decide its future course of action.

The uncertaint­y has given way to confusion among lakhs of students enrolled in various varsity programmes and courses offered on campus as well as in its affiliated colleges.

The government has made it clear that students of final year will appear for their terminal examinatio­ns between July 1 and July 31 and the results be declared by August 7. The management of Kurukshetr­a University has called a meeting on Monday to make the decision.

The government has announced that students in intermedia­te semesters will be promoted with 50% weightage of internal assessment and 50% weightage of marks obtained in previous examinatio­n.

The notificati­on has, however, also categorica­lly mentioned, “If the university intends to take examinatio­ns of such students of the campus department­s, they may do so.” Many students are finding it confusing and seeking clarity from the university.
