LUCKNOW, May 21 -- The Lucknow Mahanagar unit of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) staged a protest at the administrative building of Lucknow University on Wednesday over alleged negligence in the examination and evaluation process for law students of the university and its affiliated colleges. A delegation submitted a memorandum to controller of examinations Vidyanand Tripathi. Students raised slogans over alleged irregularities in the LLB first-year examination. They also objected to the change in the examination pattern from a 70:30 written-internal assessment ratio to a 90:10 ratio. The students demanded rollback of the revised pattern, reforms in the evaluation system on the lines of National Law Universities (NLUs), and re-evaluation of answer sheets to address discrepancies in first-semester marks. ABVP Awadh province minister Arpan Kushwaha said that "large-scale irregularities" in the examination results of a professional course like law were jeopardising the future of thousands of students. "ABVP will not tolerate this authoritarian and weak evaluation system at any cost. The evaluation process must be reformed on the lines of national institutions and NLUs so that justice can be done to students' talent," said Kushwaha. ABVP Lucknow Mahanagar leader Sarita Pandey said an impartial inquiry into alleged discrepancies in first-semester marks, re-evaluation of answer sheets by experienced professors and restoration of the 70:30 evaluation system were among the organisation's key demands. "Until the first-semester results become completely error-free, the dates for second-semester examination forms must be extended," said Pandey....
