In a statement here, he said students of first, second and third year of engineering courses and first and second year of regular degree courses should be promoted according to the UGC guidelines. “The mass promotion is a necessity because these students have to manage their online classes, mid-exams apart from following semester, doing all this in this very short period will be a Herculean task,” he explained.
