Lanix Lobo, a final year engineering student from Pune Institute of Computer Technology who launched the online petition informed Mirror Online that he, along with most of the batchmates, were under the impression that their exams will get cancelled. Lobo, unlike many other students, feel that it is unfair to conduct examinations for final semester students and promote other semester students on the basis of internal assessments.
The decision to conduct last semester examinations starting from July 1 to July 30, 2020, was taken during the meeting attended by Uday Samant, Maharashtra Education Minister and Vice-Chancellors of all universities in the state on May 8.
