Nagpur: Technical glitches once again disrupted the declaration of BTech Semester IV results at Nagpur University (NU), leaving hundreds of engineering students confused and anxious. Results of several fourth-semester courses were released late on Monday evening, but many students were unable to access their marksheets or even locate their roll numbers on the university portal.Several students reported encountering a “failed to load marksheet” error when accessing their results online. In many cases, roll numbers were entirely missing from the gazette uploaded on the NU website. Some students reported that entering different roll numbers repeatedly displayed the same marksheet. Screenshots shared by students showed identical marksheets appearing against multiple roll numbers, adding to the confusion.
“The gazette itself is faulty. In some branches, roll numbers are not shown at all. In others, whichever roll number you enter, the same result appears,” said a final-year engineering student from the Computer Science Engineering branch.NU deputy registrar Manish Zodpe, who currently holds additional charge of the examination section, said that if a result is withheld, the marksheet will not be displayed on the portal. However, he was unable to explain how the marksheet of one student was appearing repeatedly against different roll numbers. “I will have to check the system. If there is any complaint, it will be resolved,” Zodpe said.Students, however, alleged that the gazette carried no remarks such as “withheld,” “pass,” “fail,” or instructions to contact the college — details that are usually mentioned in such cases. “There is no clarity at all. When we contacted our colleges, they asked us to approach the examination section, which in turn, told us to check with the colleges. Everyone is passing the blame,” a student said.Adding to their frustration, some students were informed that they would have to wait until the tabulation register (TR) for the results is prepared — a process that could take another 10 to 15 days. The delay has raised serious concerns, particularly for students who need their results urgently for internships, higher education admissions, and campus placements.The issue has further angered students as the BTech results were already delayed, while winter examinations were also conducted inordinately late this academic year. “Academic calendars are already disrupted. Now such errors are adding to our mental stress,” another student said.
