KATHMANDU, JULY 14

Tribhuvan University has taken action against four teachers for copying questions from examinations that students had already taken.

The teachers in question will be barred from teaching at any college under TU for three years and from being involved in any examinations for the same period, the meeting of the TU Executive Council concluded in a statement.

The teachers have been charged with copying BBA (sixth semester) question paper (MGT 203: Organisational Behaviour) that was held on July 6 and BBA (sixth semester) question papers (SOC 202: Nepalese Society and Politics and SOC 201: Sociology for Business) held on July 9.

The question paper on Organisational Behaviour was set by Modern Nepal College, Sorhakhutte, for its pre-board examinations three months ago. "The question paper made by Modern Nepal College was copied and submitted to the Office of Dean, TU. The teacher in question is found to have violated academic values and standards," says TUEC statement.

The question paper on Nepalese Society and Politics was copied from bank examinations held in the past.

The meeting reprimanded those involved in copying MA question paper on Public Economics that was held on June 1 and MA question paper on international politics.
