OU professors breach biometric attendance system
Hyderabad: Osmania University mandated biometric attendance for all teaching and non-teaching staff members in the Arts College to ensure punctuality, track faculty attendance, and minimise absenteeism. Six years after the biometric system's implementation, students continue to habitually wait for their lecturers, engage in conversation while they wait, and then leave without hearing a lecture since the higher authorities have not fully adopted and implemented the biometric attendance system. An assistant professor from an Arts College department who is on contract revealed, under the condition of anonymity, that some of the permanent professors are not showing up to the departments since they are not registered with the biometric attendance system. She advises that in order to increase transparency and enhance the university's educational system, the institution should firmly implement biometric attendance for both the faculty and students.
