Examination Irregularities at BRA Bihar University: Agency Error Leads to Student’s Result Discrepancy

Published by

KKN Gurugram Desk | A significant administrative oversight at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar Bihar University (BRABU) in Muzaffarpur has come to light, where a student was erroneously marked as ‘passed’ in Part I examinations due to an agency’s mistake. This error allowed the student to progress through subsequent academic years, only for the discrepancy to be discovered during the final result compilation. The incident has raised serious concerns about the university’s examination processes and the accountability of third-party agencies involved in result tabulation.

Incident Overview

In the 2018-21 academic session, a student from ABS College, Lalganj, affiliated with BRABU, was mistakenly declared ‘passed’ in the TDC Part I examination by an external agency responsible for result processing. Relying on this result, the student proceeded to appear for and pass the Part II and Part III examinations. However, during the final result compilation, it was discovered that the student had actually failed in one subject in Part I, rendering the subsequent results invalid.

Details of the Discrepancy

The student had opted for NH subjects, which included 50 marks each in Hindi and English. To pass, a minimum of 15 marks in each subject was required. The student secured 12 marks in one paper and 30 in the other, technically failing in one subject. Despite this, the agency’s error led to a ‘pass’ status being recorded, allowing the student to continue with higher semesters.

University’s Response

Upon discovering the error, BRABU withheld the student’s final result and initiated an internal review. The university has stated that the matter will be presented before the examination board for resolution. Additionally, a formal explanation has been sought from the agency responsible for the mistake. It’s worth noting that the agency in question has since ceased operations with the university.

Wider Implications and Student Grievances

This incident is not isolated. During a student grievance meeting held at the university guest house, several students reported similar issues:

  • Sakaldeep Kumar, a student from Mahesh Prasad Singh College, reported that his TDC Part III practical examination was marked as ‘absent,’ and his evaluated answer sheet is missing. He provided attendance records and memos as evidence.

  • Ranjit Kumar from Dr. Jagannath Mishra College complained about not receiving his degree certificate despite applying on August 30, 2024.

  • Mohammad Javed Akhtar, a 1995 graduate from SKJ Law College, applied for his degree on April 7, 2025, but has yet to receive it.

  • Rakesh Ram requested an extension for PG registration dates, citing his inability to register within the initial timeframe.

  • Nishant Raj reported that he couldn’t fill out the PG first-semester form due to not receiving his migration certificate on time.

These grievances highlight systemic issues within the university’s administrative and examination processes.

The recent revelations at BRABU underscore the critical need for robust checks and balances in academic result processing. The reliance on third-party agencies necessitates stringent oversight to prevent such errors that can significantly impact students’ academic and professional futures. As the university moves to address these issues, affected students await timely and fair resolutions to their grievances.
