BCU and BU fight over evaluators

BENGALURU, JANUARY 06, 2019 00:00 IST

After fighting for ownership of assets, including buildings and land, Bengaluru Central University (BCU) and Bangalore University (BU) are up in the arms again — this time over evaluators to mark answer scripts of the odd-semester examinations.

Many evaluators have been asked to report for duty at the evaluation camps of both BU and BCU. “We are confused where to go. Both universities are asking us to come and finish evaluation of their answer scripts and then go to the other university,” a Kannada lecturer said.

While BU is conducting evaluation of 13 lakh answer scripts, BCU is evaluating 2 lakh answer scripts.

On Saturday, BU sent out a press release asking principals to get their lecturers to report for evaluation duty, failing which the affiliation of the college would be cancelled. C. Shivaraju, Registrar (Evaluation) of BU, in the release also added that they would inform the Department of Collegiate Education to withhold the salaries of aided college lecturers if they did not turn up for evaluation duty. Prof. Shivaraju said that out of 3,000 evaluators who were supposed to turn up for duty, only half have reported for work.
