Kumaun University has completed the tender process for printing degrees and marksheets, clearing a months-long delay that had affected students across its affiliated campuses and colleges. The university administration said printing and preparation of the documents would begin soon.

The development follows a report published by Amar Ujala on 16 October about degrees being held up during the tender process. The university subsequently completed a new re-tendering process after addressing technical and security requirements.

Students to receive degrees in phases

The completed process is expected to provide relief to hundreds of students who have been waiting for their degrees for several months. The documents are important for employment, higher education and other requirements linked to academic qualifications.

University officials said students with an urgent or emergency need are currently being given priority. This arrangement is intended to ensure that delays do not affect their jobs or further studies. Other students will begin receiving their degrees once the remaining printing work is completed.

Kumaun University Registrar Prof. Ritesh Sah said strict security and high-quality standards are compulsory for printing degrees and marksheets. He said the technical process required additional time to ensure that the work was completed safely.

The university has not provided a specific date for completion of printing or distribution of all pending degrees. However, officials said the process would start soon after the tender procedure was completed.

Conclusion

Kumaun University’s completed re-tendering process removes the immediate administrative hurdle to degree printing. Students with urgent requirements are being prioritised, while the remaining degrees are expected to be issued after printing begins.
