Convocation is held long after passing out the exam. Degrees are withheld till such time convocation is held. This happens almost a year after the student passed out. Since millions of students appear for graduate and post graduate courses, the delay creates avoidable problem of not holding Degree even after passing out. It is suggested that this ceremonial event be hold for awarding Medals etc and degrees for Technical or Professional courses. Such a step would relieve millions of students from waiting for their degrees which could be given within a month of passing out as done in western world.
Rules linking award of degrees with convocation may be done away.
