Should Delhi University take online open book exam (OBE) or not????




As all of you that DU is to take open book exam "online" and has released the date sheet for the following.
 
However, my question is should Delhi University take online exams????

So here are a few things which are on my mind and I want to share with all of you
  •  First of all, from the beginning of this year, i.e, 2020,  students are suffering from the loss of study materials. Now, you will be thinking how??? So the thing is that there have been DUTA strike in months of January and February. Due to which students didn't get a fair chance of studying without a concerned subject teacher.
  • The second thing is students were going to their hometown and villages for the mid-semester break during holi and they don't get the chance of getting access to proper study notes and books.
  • On one hand, it is an open book exam while on the other hand students do not have proper notes and books.
  • Delhi University has released guidelines in which they are talking about students to sign an undertaking that they will not use any kind of material during exam otherwise legal action will be taken. But is this fair to students who do not have books and study materials.
  • Many students are from villages and small towns where there is no internet connection how will they able to give exam??
  • Some students are visually impaired, they don't have access to the internet due to their disability how will they give exams??
  • The most ironic thing is that DU website crashes within 30 minutes after releasing results and they want to conduct exams!!!!
   CONCLUSION

In my opinion, University should wait for the pandemic to end or should cancel exams for the final year students as well. As it is unfair for them to give online exams without having proper study notes and guides
