Sub: Petition to Prime Minister opposing Online Open Book Examinations in DU

Dear Prof. Singh,

We are sending you a copy as attachment of the Petition that we have submitted today to the Hon’ble Prime Minister to express our strong opposition to the decision taken by Delhi University to hold Online Open Book Exams (OBE) for terminal year/ semester students.

The Petition clearly outlines the reasons for our opposition and has been corroborated by the Survey-cum-Referendum with nearly 52,000 students conducted by DUTA. The Petition has received support from as many as 15701 students, teachers and parents of Delhi University.

We wish to add that many Universities, including the IITs, have adopted alternative methods to grant degrees which must be seriously considered, given the pandemic conditions prevailing in the country. This will be in the best interests of the students.

We draw your attention to the issues and hope for an early intervention.

Yours sincerely,

Rajib Ray
President, DUTA

Rajinder Singh
Secretary, DUTA
