Nagpur News: The much- anticipated meeting of the Academic Council of Rashtrasant Tudakoji Maharaj (RTM) Nagpur University today yielded nothing new for students. Admission dates for “jumping” students and students declared eligible for admission after revaluation have been extended till November 19, for the academic year2012- 13. “No change” students, at the mercy of lackadaisical University checking, have been offered no solution.

The extension of the last date for admissions, the demands of non- absorption by students of LLB and the new syllabus and examination scheme for M. Tech were discussed in the meeting. Law students will now be allowed to stick to the old syllabus of 2008.
