LAHORE, Oct 30: The University of Health Sciences has failed to deliver detailed mark sheets to the candidates for MBBS and BDS degrees in professional examinations conducted by it.

The UHS has failed to deliver the mark sheets even to those candidates who appeared for the MBBS third professional examination from the Nishtar Medical College Multan, the first ever examination conducted by the university. As the result was announced on Sept 9, the UHS administration stated that the result had been declared in a record time of six days.

NMC principal Prof Dr Shabir Nasir told reporters that the college had not yet received the detailed mark sheets of its students despite the passage of over seven weeks. He said he had written twice to the UHS authorities to send students’ detailed mark sheets, but no response had yet been received from the university. He said the college had received information only about students’ overall pass and fail results.

Prof Nasir that he would raise the issue at the syndicate meeting.

When contacted, a senior UHS official said preparation of detailed mark sheets was in progress, which would soon be sent to the candidates concerned. He said the delay was caused because the university authorities remained busy in holding examinations. He also said the UHS was also considering whether or not the failed candidates should be told their detailed marks.

The official claimed that detailed mark sheets of the successful candidates appearing for the first two examinations, had been posted.

Some students told reporters that the UHS had not provided detailed mark sheets to their colleges, but the controller of examinations and other officials concerned were informing students about their results on individual basis.

Students and their parents have also demanded that the president and the Punjab governor should intervene in the matter and set things right in the UHS.

The de’Montmorency College of Dentistry students have also claimed that they had also not received their detailed mark sheets.

UHS controller of examinations Dr Aftab Mohsin was not available for comments on the issue.

UHS vice-chancellor Prof Dr Malik Husain Mubashir claimed that the UHS had delivered detailed mark sheets to the candidates who appeared for a couple of examinations. Other candidates’ detailed mark sheets were being prepared.

Prof Mubashir also denied the impression that the UHS had revised any result. He said that the wrong posting of marks of a BDS candidate had been manoeuvred by somebody.

He also said that vested interests were instigating students’ stance against the UHS.
