Head of Delhi University’s computer department Dr. Sanjeev Singh said that around 50% of answer scripts submitted via the OBE portal have been assessed. However, for submissions made via e-mail, a tedious procedure of integration and assessment with the DU portal have to be evaluated.

Acting Dean of Examination, Professor DS Rawat, in retort to the court’s questioning if the entire evolution procedure could be completed in the 1st or the 2nd week of October, rather October 30 said that after assessment of answer scripts, the result has to be moderated and then grades have to be awarded, which will consume time.
