The State Government of Tamil Nadu has informed the All India Council for Technical Education (AITEC) that it is ready to conduct the examinations for the students with arrears,

The State Government of Tamil Nadu announced that apart from the students in the final year of their Arts/Science/Engineering courses, all the other students studying in different years including those with arrears will be declared as passed.

In this situation, AITEC had written a letter to the State Government of Tamil Nadu that declaring the students with arrears as passed is not acceptable.

In response, the State Government of Tamil Nadu replied that te students with arrears were declared as passed only as per the rules and regulations of the University Grants Commission (UGC) and the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE).

In this scenario, the Head of the AITEC had a discussion with the Secretary of the Higher Education of the State Government of Tamil Nadu.

During the discussion, the State Government of Tamil Nadu categorically declared to AITEC that the news that it was not ready to conduct the examination was wrong! Further, AITEC has emphasised the State Government of Tamil Nadu that arrears examination must be conducted for the students.

Following this, academicians are of the view that the State Government of Tamil Nadu may withdraw the declaration of the student with arrears as passed!
