Resentment over delay in results
Himachal Pradesh University (HPU) campus unit of the ABVP has expressed resentment over the inordinate delay in declaring the re-evaluation results of undergraduate courses. "The results were declared in September 2019 and thousands of students filled in forms for re-evaluation in two or more subjects, but even after four months, the results have not been declared," said Vishal Verma, president of the campus unit of the ABVP. The university is bent upon ruining the future of the students as the last date for filling the examination forms for second year is January 10 and in case the students do not pass in re-evaluation, their two years will be wasted. He said a statewide agitation would be launched innbsp;case the results were not declared immediately.
