Bareilly College Refuses to Conduct Examinations for Other Institutions During Summer Vacation Bareilly College has refused to conduct examinations for students from other universities during the summer vacation period, citing logistical challenges and staff shortages. The conflict emerged after the Ruhelkhund University declared summer break starting May 25, 2026, which coincides with ongoing academic activities at Bareilly College. The college’s principal, Prof. Omprakash Rai, informed the university’s examination controller that the institution would be unable to accommodate external students for exams during this time. According to a letter from Prof. Rai, Bareilly College has been hosting examinations for the university’s annual exams since April 16, with the process expected to continue until the third week of June. Additionally, the university has scheduled semester exams for May 22, requiring the college to act as an examination center for other institutions. Despite this designation, the principal emphasized that all faculty and non-teaching staff would be on leave during the summer vacation, leaving insufficient personnel to manage the additional workload. Prof. Rai stated that the college would only be able to conduct examinations for its own students during the vacation period. He requested the university administration to reconsider the arrangement and provide alternative solutions for students from other colleges. The principal highlighted the logistical strain of managing both internal and external exams simultaneously, particularly with staff unavailable due to the summer break. Meanwhile, the vice-chancellor of Ruhelkhund University clarified that certain processes, including admissions and evaluations, would continue as scheduled during the vacation.#examination_center #summer_vacation #bareilly_college #ruhelkhund_university #prof_omprakash_rai
