Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has launched a special initiative allowing learners in the Diploma in Primary Education (DPE) programme who could not complete their course within the stipulated time to finish their pending academic work. The move is expected to provide relief to those whose studies have been incomplete due to various reasons.
Under the initiative by IGNOU's Student Evaluation Division, eligible candidates can complete pending theory exams, practical exams, assignments and other remaining components of the programme, subject to approval from the competent authority and applicable rules. Regional centres have been directed to inform eligible learners about this opportunity.
Dr E Krishna Rao, Senior Regional Director of IGNOU Regional Centre Patna, urged DPE learners to submit their name, enrolment number, contact details and pending academic work details to the centre for necessary action. Applications will be forwarded to the Student Evaluation Division at IGNOU headquarters.
This initiative directly addresses a bottleneck for DPE learners whose careers depended on completing a programme they could not finish on time. IGNOU has not set a deadline for submitting details, leaving the window open-ended for now. The regional centre in Patna is acting as a collection point, but the actual clearance will depend on headquarters' evaluation capacity. Learners must act quickly to provide their information to avoid missing out.
