The deadline to declare results is barely hours away but the Mumbai University is yet to evaluate close to 3.35 lakh answer sheets.

Deadline ends but Mumbai University yet to evaluate 3.35 lakh papers

Maharashtra governor had given the Mumbai University until July 31 to declare results of 477 examinations but up until Sunday, results of only 151 examinations have been declared. On Sunday, around 11,000 papers were evaluated, 14,000 answer sheets were moderated and results of 10 exams were declared. Out of the 151 examinations results that have been declared, none are core courses.

The university had asked faculty members to work over the weekend to complete assessment, however, only a few turned up. The delay in declaring results are delaying admission processes for various courses for students. The university hopes to declare the results in the next three or four days. "328 results are yet to be declared. We are hoping to declare 100 more by the end of the day on Monday," said MA Khan, the Registrar, University of Mumbai.

Commerce course examination results are expected to be declared before Thursday. The systematic failure of the university was highlighted by the Shiv Sena and Aditya Thackeray had met the governor over the same.
