An official admitted that answer sheets have been lost in the online system and need to be traced. Time is of the essence though. It is unacceptable that answer sheets simply go missing online. Isn't this the exact thing that an online system is supposed to prevent? While hurrying with the evaluation process, MU simultaneously needs to find out how online papers can simply go missing, so future lapses can be avoided.

It is shocking that student's answer sheets are treated in such a casual manner. A student's future can swing on one per cent here and there. Admissions are already ruthlessly competitive, arduous and stressful. Just one or two sessions at an academic helpline will help illustrate the kind of crushing pressure students are under for good marks and admissions in institutes of their choice, or frankly any institute at all. The last thing they need to compound their stress is a bungling university, delaying results and failing in its job.
