DIMAPUR, JUNE 11 (MExN): On report from the Examination Centre Superintendent, the result of 966 students from different parts of the country and from overseas centres admitted at Indira Gandhi National Open University has been cancelled for adopting unfair means in December 2006 Term-end Examination.
IGNOU, Registrar, SRE Division Dr. Srikant Mohapatra said that the decision was made when a five member Examination Disciplinary Committee examined all the cases after giving the chances of hearing from the students, both in person and through letters. “They shall be debarred from appearing June 2007 Term-end Examination” the Registrar further declared in the release.
An inquiry into the matter revealed that the students had copied from the study materials. The evaluators had also reported that the students who had appealed to the evaluators to give them pass marks and who had attached currency notes in the answer books have also got similar punishment. Some students have been debarred from appearing the examination for two years as a punishment for forcefully taking away the answer books and threatening the Examination Centre staff.
“In case of impersonation, their results have been cancelled and they have been debarred from the university examination for three years and a police case has already been lodged and their name has been placed in the University website.” Dr. Srikant Mohapatra stated in the release.
