Press Release, 7th June: Expressing deep concern over the plight of the students, J&K Students Association here on today urged Govt to promote students as per UGC guidelines by holding internal assessment examination.
In a Statement, Spokesperson of Association Nasir Khuehami said that Govt should promote students in their present semesters on the basis of their internal assessments in order to give them a clear way ahead and hold offline classes for upcoming semesters whenever situation will normalize.
He demand that UG and PG students across all semesters be promoted on the basis of internal assessment and that online exams should not be held as many may not have access to the internet.
He said that, due to continuous ban on high internet connectivity (4G Services) Kashmiri students can’t attend their online exams. He said that, the unavailability of high speed internet connectivity has hampered and halted the process of online classes of students.
Education sector has been the worst victim in Kashmir Valley, and with internet services snapped, the students have no source to study at home and clear their concepts.
He said that, due to the continuous ban on high speed internet services, students are not able to learn topics and chapters which adversely affect their education and ultimately they fail to compete with students of the other regions of India.
Khuehami said that online classes and exams are discriminatory against students from marginalized backgrounds. He urged Colleges and Universities to follow the guidelines issued by University Grants of Commission for holding exams and promotion of students to next semester.
The Amount of Academic loss since 5th August 2019 is unbearable & Irreparable. We demand that College’s and Universities should Promote Students on the internal assignment reports and their previous semester grades.
The non availability of high speed internet connectivity has hampered and halted the process of online classes of students, & this global pandemic has made the future of students uncertain, he added.
Khadim Khan, Joint Secretary of Association said that, to save the precious time of students, let all the universities & colleges follow UGC guidelines and promote Kashmiri Students to next semesters according to the protocol.
He urged Govt to pay heed to the plea of students.
