The E.R.C. has the following functions:

i. to recommend appointment of paper setters/ examiners of various examinations at the start of each Semester.
ii. to get prepared quizzes, assignments, test papers etc. for the mid-term and the end semester examination and
to get them evaluated. Normally each concerned teacher, who is also a member of E.R.C., will do this job
for his class. However, in exceptional circumstances any part the work will be entrusted to some other
member of E.R. C.
iii. The mode of evaluation of the mid-term activities whose weightage shall be 30% and the end of term
examination whose weightages shall be 70% (The mid-term activities will be one midterm test or 20%
weightage which will be supplemented by assignments, quizzes etc. for a theory course with weightage of
10%). For a practical course, 30% weightage be given for internal evaluation and 70% for End Semester
Examination. At the end of the Semester, the E.R.C. Chairman will send to the University the consolidated
marks for the mid-term activities and the End Semester in separate column for tabulation and for declaration
of results.

iv. to consider the individual representation of students about evaluation and take the remedial action if needed.
After scrutinizing the E.R.C may alter the marks awarded upward/ downward. The decision of the ERC
shall be final. The candidate shall apply for the same on a prescribed Proforma along with the evaluation
fee prescribed the University from time to time only for the end Semester Examination within seven days
from the date of declaration of result.
