PU result alteration probe, BSc & MSc results

PU college ordered to probe into 'alteration' to result
Lahore, Dec 26: The Punjab University (PU) administration on Tuesday ordered College of Art and Design Director Dr Zafarullah to probe into the alleged alteration in the final result of MA semester III in musicology, officials and students said on Tuesday.

The result has become controversial after the Musicology Department students complained that the result has been 'revised' to give passing marks to an unsuccessful student.

According to the result displayed in July three students, Ghulam Abbas, Mazhar Hameed and Nadeem Riaz passed the exam. The 'revised' result, however, declares four students successful. A new student Syed Afaq has been added to the new list. A PU official said the administration was concerned about 'favouritism'. He said the administration had received complaints against several teachers in this regard.

A student, seeking anonymity, said the result was declared on November 21, but a viva was conducted on December 23, which was in violation of the rules as the result had been announced a month prior to the 'reconsidered' viva.

Not altered': The College of Art and Design head said they were holding an inquiry on Wednesday (today). He said that a committee had been formed for this purpose. He said the result had not been 'altered'.

Zahid Shehzad, a student, submitted a compliant with the office of the provincial ombudsman in this regard. Zahid said the ombudsman had ordered the PU administration to submit a report. Daily Times
