A batch of seven students from K P B Hinduja College of Commerce, Charni Road, studying the MA Mass Communication and Journalism (MJ) course, has found themselves in a difficult situation after failing a subject in their final year exams. Besides the flawed evaluation, the students allege that they were informed about the exam just a day prior, disrupting their preparation.

The exams for the course affiliated to Mumbai University (MU) , which usually take place in June or July, were held in April 2024 this year. Despite this unusual scheduling, the college administration informed us that the syllabus was completed well in advance, and all teaching for the course was finished before the exams.
