Take action against erring valuators: Academicians

The decision of the Nagpur bench of Bombay high court to provide relief to law student Richa Inamdar has raised several doubts over the entire revaluation process of Nagpur University, which is already under intense criticism from the students community.



However, the NU bosses have simply refused to take action against such erring valuators and tried to shirk their responsibility by stating that such matters will be dealt by its disciplinary action committee (DAC). "It`s a statutory body to take action in such issues," pro-vice chancellor Arvind Chaudhary and officiating registrar Debendranath Mishra told TOI.


Richa was awarded zero marks for three correct answers by not one but three valuators (including two in revaluation) and was declared failed. It took the high court judges to check and remark that she didn`t deserve zero, which prompted NU to recheck the paper from an expert, who increased 17 marks. Sadly, there are thousands like her undergoing severe harassment and trauma and even wasting precious academic years due to valuators` fault.


"Exemplary punishments should be meted out to such valuators so that they prove deterrent for others. How long will they continue to play with the innocent students` lives?" senior academician Dr Ved Prakash Mishra asked.


He lamented as to how the NU bosses escape their responsibility. "It`s their duty to declare results within the stipulated period of 45 days. Strict steps much be taken to deal with the casual and cavalier approach of the authorities and valuators and proper system should be put into place."
"If students are punished under unfair means, why not valuators? Why doesn`t DAC have a catalogue which earmarks punishments for valuators and moderators? Sadly, everyone knows how the culprits are saved in NU by their godfathers," Dr Mishra charged.


Former senate member and lawyer Mohan Bajpayee blasted the NU bosses for shirking responsibility. "They should make critical remarks in service books of such erroneous valuators and also recommend to the government to stop their payments or increments. Ask their managements to terminate them."


Richa`s counsel Anil Kilor said NU has powers to amend such laws. "Poor valuation had emerged biggest problem in the NU and strict steps need to be taken. Such things happen because there is no control of VC or pro-VC. They can do so many things, but no one is serious about effecting change," he said.


Even students slam the NU authorities for the chaos. "The revaluation system is weird. The valuers who check the papers incorrectly should be immediately fired for playing with the students` future," BCCA student Dheeraj Mohapatra said.
An engineering student from Ramdeobaba college V Kunal said he will surely follow Richa`s steps if such problem cropped up. "Everyone knows about NU`s pathetic valuation system. Even question papers are not set properly."


Ankit Garg pursuing engineering from Raisoni college felt that teachers who check the papers seemed to be really inexperienced. "It`s very surprising when a person gives his paper for revaluation and it comes back with 20 marks increased or decreased. Why didn`t they check the papers properly at the first instance?" he said.
