75 percent attendance compulsory in University and Colleges of Bihar latest news update 2023
Latest Updated 25/08/2023: 75 percent attendance of students will be mandatory in all universities and colleges of the state. Instructions have been issued by the Raj Bhavan to the Vice Chancellors of all the universities on Wednesday night in this regard. Students will not be allowed to fill the examination form without 75% attendance. They will not get a chance to appear in the examination under any circumstances.
The Raj Bhavan has expressed displeasure over the permission to fill the examination form despite not having 75 per cent attendance. In the letter issued by the Raj Bhavan, it has been said that such information is being received that even after the low attendance, the students are being given a chance to appear in the examination by filling the examination form. It should not happen. In a letter written by Robert L Chongthu, Principal Secretary to the Governor, all the Vice Chancellors have been directed to make 75 per cent attendance mandatory. He has said that if the attendance is less than 75 percent then do not submit the form for appearing in the examination. Do not allow such students to appear in the examination if there is no valid reason. On behalf of the Raj Bhavan, the universities have been asked to ensure compliance of this order at all costs.
Efforts have also been started at the level of universities to increase the presence of distance students in Harkat University. Still it is not satisfactory in most of the colleges. Meanwhile, despite not having 75 per cent attendance, the matter of filling examination forms in universities and colleges was coming to the fore. For this reason, the Raj Bhavan has instructed to increase the attendance of the students to 75 percent.
Education department also took many steps
Several steps have been taken in the recent months by the Education Department and the Raj Bhavan to create a better environment for studies in universities and colleges. On the instructions of KK Pathak, Additional Chief Secretary, Education Department, surprise inspections of colleges and schools are being conducted continuously. During the inspection, the attendance of the students was less in all the colleges. Recently, Rekha Kumari, director of higher education, had also directed universities and colleges to increase attendance. The report of attendance in the colleges was also being sent to the Raj Bhavan.
