The University Grants Commission on Thursday filed a response before the Supreme Court to the petitions challenging the July 6 directive mandating all the universities and colleges to conduct final-year examinations by September 30 amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

They have also sought directions to the authorities to subsequently provide another chance to improve marks to those willing students, who may be unsatisfied with their score based on past performance or internal assessment.
