Earlier, the Gujarat government had announced the decision to allow colleges and universities to conduct final year examinations. However, the Congress has opposed the cabinet decision.
As per the latest updates, the GTU Final Year examinations have been postponed in view of rising number of Covid-19 positive cases in the state. The revised date of exams will be announced later by the University.
GTU had conducted an opinion poll on it’s website on holding of examinations. Around 54,000 students replied in affirmative as they wanted to move on, get the certificates for jobs or pursue higher education. Only 900 students opposed holding of examinations.
