Srinagar: After protests by students, the University of Kashmir has decided to give 20 per cent syllabus relaxation to all streams of the undergraduate final year course, the exams for which are scheduled from January 10.The Controller of Examination, University of Kashmir, Prof Salam Bhat said: “In section (A) of long-type questions, just four questions are to be attempted. This means students will get 20 per cent relaxation.”Students of BSc, BA and other streams earlier this week held a protest in Srinagar demanding relaxation in syllabus.The students could not attend colleges this year due to the unrest from July to November following the killing of militant commander Burhan Wani. Students said they had completed just 20 per cent of their syllabus in their colleges.However, no relaxation has been given to the postgraduate students of the university.The BSc final year students had also demanded that they be given more time between the papers and the date sheet be reviewed so that they could get more time to prepare.“We are considering changing the date sheet for the science stream, especially for chemistry, where students had admitted that they had problems. Also, the paper on January 28, when the Management Aptitude Test is scheduled, will be postponed. It will be notified,” Bhat said. (TNS)
