Screen revaluation paper for Rs 500

Updated on: Wednesday, February 29, 2012

Kerala University has decided to make crucial amendments to rules regarding the revaluation process to ensure more transparency.

One of the decisions was to make available photostat copies of answer sheets on payment of a fee of Rs 500.

Another decision was to make changes in the mark list even if a student got only one mark in the revaluation process.

As per the present norms, changes will be made in the mark list only if a student gets at least four marks during revaluations. The decision to make the amendments was taken during the Syndicate meeting held last week.

The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) had, in its report for the year ending March 31 last year, come down heavily on Kerala University for its inefficiency in handling the answer books including those submitted for revaluation, leading to their loss.

The answer scripts of 15 candidates, who had applied for revaluation, were among the 84 answer scripts that went missing, as per the scrutiny of the CAG.

As per the guidelines for revaluation, in the event of the examiner’s failure to return the answer books to the university, he/she should be permanently debarred from the university as an examiner.
