“The postgraduate programme examination is likely to commence in the month of July as the OU administration is working on finalizing the exam dates,” said Dr. Sriram Venkatesh, controller of examinations, Osmania University.
“If the need arises, we will increase the number of centers and ensure that in the examination halls more physical distance is practiced,” said Dr Venkatesh
Dr. Ch. Gopal Reddy, registrar, OU said “We will not conduct online exams, since a large population of students belong to rural areas. It will not be easy for them to access the internet or infrastructure to appear for online examinations. This is a tentative plan, but we are preparing to hold the semester exams soon,” reports Deccan Chronicle.
