Dear Students,
Every student of M.A./M.Com./M.Sc. I year has to write and submit Assignment for
each paper compulsorily. Each assignment carries 20 marks. University Examinations will
be held for 80 marks. The concerned faculty evaluates these assignment scripts. The marks
awarded to you will be forwarded to the Controller of Examination, OU for inclusion in the
University Examination marks. If you fail to submit Internal Assignments before the stipulated
date, the internal marks will not be added to University examination marks under any
circumstances. The assignment marks will not be accepted after the stipulated date,
You are required to pay Rs.300/- fee towards Internal Assignment marks through DD (in favour of
Director, PGRRCDE, OU) and submit the same along with assignment at the concerned counter on
or before 23rd May, 2015 and obtain proper submission receipt.
ASSIGNMENT WITHOUT THE DD WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED
Assignments on Printed / Photocopy / Typed papers will not be accepted and will not be
valued at any cost. Only hand written Assignments will be accepted and valued.
Methodology for writing the Assignments:
