Outgoing principal of the Government Law College (GLC), which made headlines earlier this year after a major fiasco over re-examination of an internal paper, has issued a declaration, asking students to declare that they would not seek retest of any practical of viva voce examination.

The notice, which Dr Suvarna Keole issued on Monday evening, has irked the students, their parents and teaching staff too. "All students of three-year and five-year law course are hereby informed that college shall be conducting only one practical and viva voce examination in the respective semesters. No re-examination of the practical subjects would be conducted if the students fail or they are absent without justifiable reasons. At the time of taking samples of fingerprint for biometric attendance, all the students are bound to submit the undertaking regarding the above-mentioned policy," the notice read.
