The All Nagaland College Students’ Union (ANCSU) has urged Nagaland University to immediately address alleged discrepancies in the recently declared FYUGP Semester Examination Results 2026, expressing concern over recurring anomalies in the evaluation process.
In a representation addressed to the Vice-Chancellor of Nagaland University, the union said it had received numerous grievances from students across various colleges following the publication of the undergraduate semester results.
ANCSU alleged that the university has continued to display a lack of professionalism and sincerity in declaring semester results, citing recurring issues over the years. According to the Union, several students with consistently satisfactory academic records were unexpectedly declared unsuccessful, while others received unusually low marks, including single-digit scores. It also claimed that some students who had opted for History as their minor subject were incorrectly shown as having Education as their minor, resulting in unnecessary backlogs.
The Union said such anomalies have understandably created apprehension among the student community regarding the accuracy, fairness, and transparency of the evaluation process.
While acknowledging that examinations naturally produce both successful and unsuccessful candidates based on merit, ANCSU maintained that the recurring reports of disproportionately low marks and apparent inconsistencies warrant an immediate and impartial review. It warned that if such errors remain unaddressed, they could unfairly affect the academic future and career prospects of deserving students.
The Union also expressed concern over the University’s existing rule that permits re-evaluation only for candidates securing at least 20 per cent of the total marks. According to ANCSU, this criterion prevents students who may have suffered from evaluation or tabulation errors, particularly those awarded single-digit marks, from seeking redress.

ANCSU further highlighted complaints regarding the re-evaluation fee structure. While Nagaland University prescribes a fee of ₹450 per paper, the Union alleged that some colleges are collecting substantially higher amounts under various pretexts, including travel allowances and other incidental charges, thereby placing an unnecessary financial burden on students.
The Union demanded an immediate review of the evaluation and tabulation process in subjects where an unusually high number of students have reported discrepancies leading to unnecessary backlogs. It also called for a revision of the re-evaluation fee and urged the University to allow all students, irrespective of the marks obtained, to apply for re-evaluation based on the recommendation of the principal of their respective colleges.
ANCSU further sought completion of the re-evaluation process within a reasonable timeframe to prevent academic delays.
In addition, the Union appealed to all affiliated colleges to strictly adhere to the university-prescribed re-evaluation fee of ₹450 per paper and refrain from collecting any unauthorised additional charges unless expressly approved by the University.
ANCSU expressed hope that Nagaland University would give due consideration to the concerns raised and take appropriate measures to protect the interests of the student community while upholding the credibility of the examination system.
