The Visva-Bharati authorities on Tuesday asked all departments to hold discussions to find a way out to conduct terminal examination as soon as possible as the varsity has to complete the process by September 30 following a Supreme Court order.

The vice-chancellor, Bidyut Chakrabarty, conducted a meeting with the heads and principals of different departments where it was decided to give the responsibility of the examinations to the principals of different Bhavanas.

Varsity officials said most of the departments would prefer to take the exams online as it was impossible for the students to visit the campus as the public transportation system was yet to be normalised.
