LUCKNOW: Ram Manohar Lohia National Law University on Saturday decided to conduct
online examination for
final semester of BA-LLB five-year integrated course and promote
students of preceding semesters on basis of marks and internal assessment.
The decision, which will provide relief to 1,000 undergraduate students, was taken as per Bar Council of India guidelines on covid-19 pandemic.
“Semester 10 students will appear for
online test.
They will also have to submit project reports on a topic, but this time in online mode,” said vice-chancellor SK Bhatnagar. Exam dates will be announced shortly.
Students of remaining semesters whose exams are also due will be promoted on basis of 50% marks obtained in previous exam and aggregate of internal assessment in the current semester.
BCI guidelines also provide for offline examination of promoted students in case university reopens this session. In such a case, the exam period and questions will also be reduced. “A committee has been formed to decide modalities,” said Bhatnagar. Other universities and colleges in the city teaching law will decide on BCI guidelines next week.
