Pune, October 20, 2020: Despite repeated complaints from the students giving final year examination of the Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU), pupils continue to face the wrath of technical glitches.
Several students reported ‘server not reached’ error on their devices on Tuesday as well. In this regard, SPPU administration has decided to extend the timing of the examination. “Students who face glitches can give exam till 11 pm today”, Mahesh Kakade, Director of Examination and Evaluation, SPPU, told Punekarnews.in.
When asked about the repeated glitches, he said, “As many as 60,000 students have logged in which has caused server load resulting in the website to load slowly. However, we have decided to extend the timing so that all students can write the examination.”
Kamalakar Shete, president of SPPU student wing union, said, “Students are asserted not to panic because the exam can be given till late night.”
Many students have flooded messages on Twitter asking the SPPU administration to fix the server issue. “It has been an hour now, and even after raising complaint the same error is seen”, said a student.
Shete added, “Almost every day students are facing this issue. This has led to distress and confusion among the students. I urge the university administration to take immediate action.”
