The students have lost seven marks for the mistakes committed by the university.On the other hand, the counsel representing the University said that all the objections raised, including those raised by the appellant students, were sent to senior faculty members who are subject experts and the later considered all the objections and gave their report and on the basis of which final key was prepared and the results were published.
