DUSU General Secretary and ABVP member, Ankit Sangwan has been opposing the online entrance exam scheme. He cited the example of the DU college websites crashing several times last year and said that DU lacks technical expertise required to conduct such an exam.
He also said that it will be unfair for students coming from rural areas as they do not have access to computers or the internet. He further added that DU has no special centers that can be used by such aspirants.
Sangwan also suggested the university that they should conduct online entrance exam for one post-graduate course to check if the system works out well. He further added that an online entrance exam will be most welcome if all the technical glitches and loopholes are dealt with.
