UoM postpones semester exams to Nov 14, sparks row with colleges

The circular, issued on October 29, has sparked a debate between the university administration and college managements over the reasons behind the delay with such short notice to students. Several affiliated colleges have alleged that the university failed to procure answer sheets on time, leading to the postponement.

According to college officials, the tender process for purchasing answer booklets was initiated much later than usual, leaving insufficient time for the materials to be distributed before the scheduled commencement of exams.
