Mumbai University to evaluate answer books online from next exams 

Every semester, MU conducts as many as 402 examinations, estimating over 19.5 lakh answer booklets, which are then manually evaluated by examiners, followed by moderators.

Aiming to go digital, Mumbai University is all set to introduce an online exam-paper assessment project for all the faculties. Starting from the next exam season, which will commence from April 2017, the university will scan and evaluate over 19.5 lakh answer books online. MU officials claim that the project will prevent delay in declaring results, an issue that has been plaguing the university for over a decade. The Maharashtra University Act 1994 mandates that results be declared within 45 days from the end of exams.
