Protests at Calcutta University after 57% BA students fail
Calcutta University students have launched a protest demanding the rechecking of their answer sheets after 57% BA students reportedly failed the recently held Part-I examinations. Only 31% students had failed the BA exam last year. Stating that unsuccessful students won't be awarded extra marks, state Education Minister Partha Chatterjee said, "Agitating for pass marks is unthinkable."
