The University of Mumbai says its computerised system aimed at minimising delays in the re-evaluation and photocopy processes for students' answer sheets has been working well, a report cited in this paper. Earlier, students faced setbacks as the scrutiny of applications for re-evaluation and the dispatch of photocopies were marred by delays.

This has been addressed by deploying a sophisticated computer system, ensuring a seamless and prompt response to student requests. Post declaration of exam results, a photocopy and a re-evaluation link are now promptly provided to students through the advanced computerised system on the university website.This has significantly streamlined the process. The new system operates swiftly, sending scanned copies of the answer sheets directly to students' email addresses on the same day they apply online for photocopies.

The benefits extend to the re-evaluation process as well, with faculty members gaining instant access to a student's answer sheet upon application, contributing to a reduction in re-evaluation result delays. Our youngsters are in an absolute pressure cooker situation when it comes to academia. From intense competition to a small number of seats, it is all adding up for our youngsters who can see their prospects hinge on 1 per cent more or less, or very
tight timelines.

They have significant challenges at times, reaching exam venues because of some unexpected occurrence in the city. At times, there is some misleading information. Whatever be the reason, every effort has to be made in the interest of justice and fairness to see that the system is smooth and well-functioning.

A well-oiled machinery by the university was needed and may all such lacunae if they exist be addressed and rectified in double quick time.
