Revealing this, a notification issued by Jammu University’s Controller of Examinations on Friday said that the exams will be conducted as soon as the conditions are considered conducive by following all the safety norms/precautions, social distancing, staggered shifts etc. “The question papers shall be set from the course content delivered/syllabi completed (based on the report of the Nodal Principal of the Colleges) before the lockdown or during the lockdown,” it added.


For the promotion of second and fourth semester undergraduate students, the notification stated that the college would conduct an internal assessment, stating that it could be an internal assessment / assignment.
