‘Appeared for exams without knowing if I passed last': 7 months after system shift, 50% of Gurugram University students still await previous semester results
Gurugram University's transition to the Samarth portal seven months ago has disrupted academics for thousands, leaving nearly 50% of students awaiting past exam results despite new semester exams commencing.
GURGAON: A shift by Gurugram University to the govt-run Samarth portal around 7 months ago has resulted in academic disruption for thousands of students, with many still awaiting the outcome of exams held in Dec.
Despite new semester examinations having started, nearly 50% of students have not got their results from previous terms.
The issue began when the university moved its results management system from the EMS portal, run by a private IT firm, to Samarth, a centralised platform used by institutes like Delhi University. "The previous vendor exited in Nov 2024, and we had to migrate data of over 40,000 students from Gurugram University and affiliated colleges," said Ramesh Garg, controller of examinations.
The delays have hit students hard. A third-year BCom student said she appeared for exams without knowing whether she had passed earlier ones. "Only my first semester result is available. I don't know the outcome of the second or third. Because of that, I couldn't fill out the re-appear form in time," she said, adding: "No one at the university has been able to help."
BA graduate Anjali Jajoriya, who recently took her sixth-semester exams, is still waiting for her fifth-semester and re-examination results from Dec.

"Last month, I was told the results would be declared soon, but nothing has changed," she said. "I couldn't apply for re-exams for multiple semesters because I didn't know my status. We're caught in a loop."
Garg explained that in addition to system migration, delays in uploading marks by colleges also affected declaration of results. "The result depends on internal and external theory and practical marks. In several cases, colleges didn't upload all components. Once contacted, most complied, and those results were released," he said.
Additionally, Academic Bank of Credits ID or Apaar ID is now required to access results. Students who haven't completed their registration cannot see their marks online.

'Run for Nature 3.0': Environmental education needed for all says environmentalist; 10,000 mango saplings distributed
HUBBALLI: The number of educated individuals has increased enormously, but educated people are weak in environmental education, regretted environmentalist and writer Shivanand Kalave. Addressing Run For Nature 3.0, organised by Green Karnataka Association, We Care Foundation, and Vasundhara Foundation, here on Sunday, Kalave said that there is a need for environmental education for educated people, whereas less educated and illiterate people are living in an eco-friendly way. 'There are trees over 5,000 years old in African countries, and their saplings are being grown in Karnataka. However, human beings, with a lifespan of about 100 years, are killing trees for their greed. If we don't go back to trees, the end of mankind is in the near future,' he warned. Natural farming expert Kavita Mishra pressed for the plantation of carbon credit trees to combat increasing carbon in the environment. 'A myth is spread that agriculture is not a profitable occupation. If we do it with heart, Mother Earth will definitely hold our hands, and I am an instance of these words. I have grown about 8,000 trees on 8.10 acres of land and earn in lakhs a month,' she claimed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Keep Your Home Efficient with This Plug-In elecTrick - Save upto 80% on Power Bill Learn More Undo MLA Prasad Abbayya narrated that the celebration of World Environment Day started in 1973, but there is still a need for awareness. 'God has given us good nature, but human beings are spoiling it. Because of pollution, we are all consuming poisonous food. Protecting the environment is not only the duty of the govt or organisations, but everyone should join hands at an individual level,' he asserted. Kshamata Seva Samsthe convenor Govind Joshi said that Indians have been worshipping the environment in the form of trees, water, air, and all other components of the ecology. 'However, these components are being destroyed in the name of modernisation,' he analysed. Organiser Channu Hosamani said that they are distributing 10,000 mango Alphonso saplings to citizens so that they can grow them in their home gardens and eat chemical-free mangoes in the coming years. MLA Mahesh Tenginkai and others inaugurated the run.
