MU reschedules exams for local body polls

Taking into account that the teaching and non-teaching staff, as well as college premises, are routinely deployed for election duties, the higher education department had instructed all non-agricultural colleges to avoid conducting exams from December 1 to 4.

The change affects students in areas under the Mumbai University’s jurisdiction, including Thane, Palghar, Raigad and Ratnagiri districts, where local municipal council elections are to take place.
