II PU Chemistry paper will be held on March 31

The Department of Pre-University Education (DPUE) on Thursday said the re-examination for II PU Chemistry paper will be held on March 31, instead of March 29 as announced earlier. The re-exam will be held between 9 am and 12:15 pm. The department rescheduled the dates after a high-level meeting chaired by Legislative Council Deputy Chairman Marithibbe Gowda unanimously decided against holding the re-examination on March 29. Students had demanded that the re-exam should not be held on March 29 as the Kannada paper is scheduled for March 28, so they would not get enough time to prepare for the Chemistry exam. - DHNS
