WITH THE temperature at 9.9 degrees Celsius, many students and their families braved the cold to sit on an indefinite protest at SPPU against losing a year over “technical glitches” in examinations. Students have claimed that many of them have been failed despite raising issues that they faced during the exam while others claim that they were denied a chance to appear for re-examination.
