HPU Semester Exam 2020 Postponed: As per the latest update, Himachal Pradesh University I.e. HPU is unlikely to hold the pending Final Semester Exams 2020 for nearly 40,000 students by 15th July 2020. Reports indicate that the varsity might shift the holding of HPU Final Semester Exams 2020 back to July-end or towards 1st Week of August 2020. With the recent Unlock 2.0 Guidelines issued by Home Ministry asking all educational institutions, including university and college campuses to remain closed until 31st July 2020, it seems highly unlikely that HPU Semester Exam 2020 can be started by 15th July 2020 as planned earlier.
No Official Confirmation from HPU Administration
However, as of now, neither HP Government nor the HPU Administration has released a clear notification or statement with regards to postponement of the HPU Semester Exams 2020. As per tentative estimates, around 40,000 undergraduate level students are registered at Himachal Pradesh University i.e. HPU are eagerly awaiting any announcement in this regards. As of now, many college campuses affiliated to HPU are being used as quarantine centres for COVID-19 patients and they are yet to be vacated and sanitized. Moreover, the college staff members and teachers, who are to facilitate the holding of the exams have also been working from home now. So, even in terms of preparedness, it seems that HPU Semester Exam 2020 may be delayed.
Exam to be held by July-end, Early August 2020
Reports coming from sources close to the state government indicate that the HPU Semester Exams 2020 may start by July 2020 end or early August 2020. As of now, the university administration and state government are waiting for clear directions from UGC and the HRD Ministry. Once new or revised guidelines for holding of college and semester exams are issued by the central authorities, state government will start preparing for holding the exams soon.
