In yet another case of Mumbai University messing up, nearly 50 BSc and BCom students from two colleges in Ulhasnagar were declared failed after they were marked absent for exams they wrote. While this led to anxiety among students and their parents, it took the varsity over a week to correct the results that too after intervention from the college administration and political outfits.

Of the 50 students, 11 were BSc students of R K Talreja college. Apart from them, three students from the commerce faculty were wrongly marked absent; 36 students from Chandibai Himathmal Mansukhani (CHM) College were also impacted by the university’s goof-up. Affected students have also alleged that a number of pupils of a few colleges in Badlapur and Ambernath were similarly marked absent.
