1 2 3 4 Kolkata: Calcutta University has released a list of 11 centres where the first-semester examination for LLB will be held from July 16, excluding the college in south Kolkata where the rape incident occurred on June 25. The CU controller section has distributed these candidates among two other colleges. Meanwhile, around 200 students from this college are likely to take their first-semester examination at the department of law. Among four govt-aided colleges, this represents the highest number of examinees who will write their first-semester examination. Calcutta University's fact-finding team is probing several irregularities in the college that came to light after the rape incident. CU officials are surprised after learning that the number exceeded 200. One CU official said, "Since an investigation is underway, we cannot comment on this, but the allegation of excess admissions in the college is under scrutiny. We will cross-check this after receiving all original record books from the college.

After the incident, the college appealed to the university not to use it as an examination centre because they felt that the present conditions made it difficult to conduct examinations there. Considering the plea from the college, the university has redistributed examinees, who were supposed to write the exam at the law college, to other centres. Among 11 centres under CU, three — department of law (CU), Surendranath Law College and Heritage Law College — have been allocated students from two colleges each. There are 14 law colleges, including four state-aided colleges, affiliated with Calcutta University. A CU official explained that shifting a centre involves considering several factors, especially distance. "Students of law colleges located in the city cannot be allocated distant centres. There won't be any a problem in making arrangements because all law colleges have sufficient infrastructure to accommodate additional examinees," a CU official said. Over 2,000 students from 14 CU-affiliated colleges will take the first-semester examination. CU law department will request police deployment during the exam. "If other colleges need security, they can approach the local police stations," said an official.
