Every day the students' facilitation center receives around 80 applications for transcripts, besides that they have already a backlog of 2,500 applications.

At the same time university students' association has demanded to speed up the process and want a permanent solution to the problem.
The phenomenon has happened not only this year. Students have to face the problem every year and they have to stage a protest to get the pending transcripts. The officials never bothered to resolve the problems permanently. They show the excuse of staff shortage.They only wake up when students start to make a noise. Students applying for the foreign university have to request the universities for more time for the submission.
Now the University is planning to appoint some trainee students to cooperate the exam department in the process of issuing transcripts. The University has digitized the mark sheets for the past few years and are expected to resolve the problem within a short span of time with extra manpower.
