Testing time: BU registrar Sanjay Vir Singh writes his exams</td></tr></tbody></table>Already embroiled in controversies, Bangalore University registrar doesn't bother to apply for leave to write exam Bangalore University registrar Sanjay Vir Singh, who is also an MBA student at the university, has not applied for leave to write his exams. Singh, who triples up as a teacher, has not paid the exam fees either, as reported earlier. However, the registrar was punctual for his exam. "The registrar is the custodian of all the records of the University, including question papers and answer sheets," said L Vasudevamurthy, ex-academic council member. "How can he sit for an exam in the same university?" Singh is writing nine papers of the fourth semester and four papers from the third semester because he has to pass the papers this time. Otherwise, he has to apply afresh for the course. He was admitted to the evening course of MBA in 2003 and the rules say a student must clear all the subjects within nine years. When contacted, Pushpa Bhat, acting vice-chancellor, said, "I can just say he has taken permission from the police department which is his parent department. Permission to study was given in 2003, and I am new here. As far as leave and examination fees are concerned, I think he has fulfilled the formalities." Commenting on his triple role, she said, "The registrar is the custodian of records only in principle and the system won't allow him to access to the question papers or the answer sheets. We ensure sanctity of the exam, even those that the registrar has appeared for." 'Unethical' Syndicate members are not buying the argument. "The registrar writing an exam as a student is not only unethical, but also highly improper," said a syndicate member. When contacted, Sanjayu00a0 Singh declined to comment. But he said, "I have written the exams well and am preparing for the rest of the papers."
