The All Nagaland College Students’ Union (ANCSU) has expressed serious concerns over the recently declared results of the 2nd, 4th, and 6th semesters under FYUGP and CBCS, alleging that Nagaland University continues to remain “unprofessional and insincere” in declaring semester results year after year.
In a memorandum to the Vice Chancellor of Nagaland University, Lumami headquarters, ANCSU President, Tenyesinlo Bukh and Vice President, H Kivika Achumi stated that the Union had, on several occasions, proposed a review of the marks moderation procedure to make the policy more student-friendly and reduce the number of failures in the new system. They warned that the poor results could cause long-term harm and foster skepticism regarding the implementation of NEP 2020 in Nagaland.
The Union noted that the backlog rate for the 2nd and 4th semesters was unusually high this academic year.
“This situation not only tarnishes the reputation of our institutions and the university but also puts the academic future of thousands of students at risk,” it said.
It questioned the University’s implementation of NEP 2020, citing numerous issues such as missing student names, VAC subjects marked as backlog despite clearance, and inconsistencies in results where students declared passed in the 2nd semester were later shown as having backlogs.

The ANCSU also appealed to Nagaland University to revise the re-evaluation fee structure and allow students to verify their answer scripts before the re-evaluation process begins.
“The recently declared results have not only drastically reduced the pass rate, causing anxiety and unrest among students, discouraging them from pursuing higher studies, but also humiliated some bright students who were initially listed as toppers. Due to negligence and lack of responsibility by the concerned authority, the results were later revised citing delayed marks update,” it stated.
The Union expressed hope that Nagaland University would thoroughly assess these critical issues with sincerity and demonstrate its commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive educational environment.
A soft copy of student grievances has also been submitted to the University for reference and corrective review, it added.
