whatsoever reason(s) shall be awarded with zero marks in the respective mid
semester examination.
However, if a student remains absent due to any of the following genuine reasons,
for such students a special examination may be conducted by the department and
marks obtained in the special examination will be considered as marks of the mid
semester examination in which he/she has remained absent. Such student should
obtain prior approval from the Principal.
a) A student is critically ill or injured and certified by Civil Surgeon.
b) Death of direct blood relation relative.
c) A student representing Gujarat state in national level events and/or India in
International events organized by official boards.
