New Delhi: Delhi University teachers on Tuesday boycotted the evaluation process for undergraduate examinations in protest against the new UGC gazette notification that has altered workload requirements for faculty members.

"All twelve evaluation centres were closed today and the teachers stayed away from evaluation of scripts of undergraduate examinations, in protest against the recent draconian UGC Gazette notification that will lead to loss of jobs for about 5000 ad-hocs, temporary and guest teachers of DU," a statement issued by the Delhi University Teachers' Association (DUTA) said.
