To take the move further, the University has set up a committee which is led by Pro-VC and all the four deans of the university. The proposal of the university has been accepted by the panel and will soon be referred to the board of examination. Under the chairmanship of S P Kane, Vice-Chancellor, the proposal will be evaluated one final time.
The subject experts that are appointed for moderation, will have to visit the exam center to submit three sets of question papers in writing. These question paper sets will then be assessed by the moderator, which will then be selected randomly by the Director of Examinations and Evaluation. Finally, this selected question paper set will be sent to the examination centers at least half an hour before the exam.
