Imphal, Aug 3:

The All Manipur Students’ Union (AMSU) today showed serious concern to the July 6 announcement by the UGC to complete terminal semester examination by September. A press statement by the student body said that a case has been pending in the Supreme Court in challenging the new guidelines of the UGC and hearing is scheduled on August 10. The Court also directed the Home Ministry to submit its stand in connection with the UGC guidelines. 

 A statement issued by Bruce Pebam, Human Resource Development Secretary,                                                                                             AMSU Headquarters, said that over 18 lakhs people have been affected by COVID-19 pandemic in the country and in Manipur too there are cases of fatalities due to the pandemic. This is the time that we the people should prepared well to fight the virus by following the guidelines of the WHO to fight the pandemic.

As per the guidelines of the UGC, the Manipur University had also issued notification for conducting the terminal semester examination of the Under Graduate and Postgraduate from the 1st week of September along with the time table.  The AMSU said that conducting examination by lifting the lockdown risky for the students. On the other hand conducting exam without classes for even two months which should be conducted for three months is not fair, the AMSU statement said. As per the guidelines of the UGC the examination can be conducted, online, ofline or blened mode but for the Manipur state no proper guidelines has been framed so far.  Before conducting the exam guidelines for conducting the exam by maintaining the SOP should be framed by expert committee.

The MASU appealed the Manipur University authority to review the decision to hold terminal exam for the Undergraduate and postgraduate semester exam.
