New ‘Addition’ To Mistakes In NU Report Card Nagpur University faced widespread criticism after errors in the Winter 2025 examination results sparked confusion and frustration among students. The university, which had previously blamed affiliated college clerks for incorrect entries, was itself found to have made glaring calculation mistakes in the marksheets issued for results announced on May 10. These errors affected first, third, and fifth-semester marksheets of both regular and backlog students, with hundreds reporting discrepancies in the “maximum marks” column. In several cases, the total marks listed as 150 were inconsistent with the combined theory and practical marks, which totaled only 120 according to the marks scheme. Many students were incorrectly marked as “failed,” leading to panic and confusion as they awaited admissions and further academic processes. The errors extended beyond the marking scheme. Students highlighted major mistakes in the marks awarded column, such as a final tally of 16 theory marks and 8 internal marks being recorded as 76 instead of 24. These inconsistencies raised concerns about the accuracy of the results and the reliability of the grading process. The delay in announcing the results—three to four months past the 45-day deadline—had already caused significant distress among students, who spent time seeking corrections amid the Summer exam period. After The Times of India raised questions about the errors, the university’s exam section began uploading revised results for affected students by the evening. Despite these revisions, some issues persisted.#the_times_of_india #nagpur_university #deputy_registrar_motiram_tadas #winter_2025_examination #result_scrutiny_committee
